CREATING A CAREER OUT OF CHAOS
Traditional career development cannot keep up with the pace of change and uncertainty in the world today. Being able to pivot, constantly learn and adapt are now crucial life skills needed to future proof our careers. However, cultural norms and personal narratives about failure, success and stability prevent us from doing so.
Rising Sideways (part research-editorial-coaching project) was born to encourage people to embrace the non-linear career path as a strategy to personal fulfilment and professional progression. My mission is to challenge conventional career wisdom and make changing careers feel doable for anyone, regardless of age, experience or profession.
Find your
pivot style
Learn from a variety of proven processes, mindsets and frameworks that helped people just like you pivot in their career. I tap into the collective wisdom of people and the fields of science, business, and creativity to bring you simple but inspiring tools that work for you.
"People buy health insurance & go for checkups. So why don't we have the same mindset about future proofing our careers?"

About Rica
I’m a polymath explorer passionate about turning signals into stories. Currently I'm a design researcher and cultural strategist and I want to use my skills to uncover and codify the behaviours and mindsets that will help people prepare for the future of work. I've led internship programs, workshops and spoken about this topic with various groups and conferences.
