Have Degree But No Experience, Advice?

Dear Experts, I want to preface this by saying that I am not a slacker at everything. I get really interested and work hard on many things but once I lose my interest, so goes the level of work. I have two Masters degrees but this is only because I can......Okay, frankly its because I'm a good test taker and can regurgitate recently learned information. I have never really studied for retention beyond what is needed for the next course task. I received a my second Masters degree over a year ago but never worked in the field nor did anything to break into the new field. I was working in a different field and did not have the initiative. I still work in the field that I have my first Master's in but it is boring and I'm sick of being a manager. My question is how do I go about breaking into a field in which I have a degree but know very little about? I feel bad approaching people in the field when I feel like I won't know what they are talking about and that they will expect me to know more than I do. I'm scared I will lose their respect before I even get started and dread asking for an internship knowing this will reveal just how little I know. Help.
