Advice for seeking a master's degree in biology with a psychology / philosophy bachelor's

Hello all, I'm looking for advice / best practices for how I should approach my goal. I have a bachelor's degree in psychology and philosophy from a good state school in Massachusetts, completed in 2018. I graduated with a 3.6 GPA, assisted in a pretty significant amount of lab research, earned an award, and won a slot in a very competitive internship. I took my analytical skillset from research and became a business analyst for a number of reasons.

My passion is for biology, so I would like to earn a master's degree in biology. I have been told / seen discussion indicating that it is not wise to earn a second bachelor's degree, and that I should pursue a master's degree in biology instead, taking pre-requisite courses to catch me up on topics that I would not have covered in my undergraduate psychology / philosophy education.

Has anyone here gone either of these paths, earning a separate bachelor's degree or earning a master's degree in a different field? If so, I would greatly appreciate any advice and experiences you've had doing this. I find the concept a bit daunting, and I want to make sure that I proceed in the best way possible. My goal is to perform biology research in my field of interest, so I want to be as competitive and well-planned as I can be, working with what I have.
