Leverage your skills, knowledge, and network to transition into a new career
How to Transition out of UX is a series of workshops, activities, and group coaching to build your roadmap from UX to your next career. Go from unclear about what’s next to certain and pursuing it — with strategies and a solid plan for tackling every obstacle on the way.

Are you thinking about leaving UX, but not sure what’s next?
- Feel stuck in your current role and unsure where to go next?
- Burning out but scared to leap without a clear plan?
- Struggling to align your career with your values and priorities?
- Scared of “starting at the bottom” after leaving your UX career behind?
This pilot program is for you if:
- You have at least two years in UX.
- You have enough financial safety in the foreseeable, but you’re considering a career transition.
- You feel a pull to do something else or you’re pushed away from your current set up.
- You are feeling burnt out, unsure, or stuck in your current role.
- You have questions and concerns about where you’re going next and how to get there.
For example, you may be…
- A parental leave professional rethinking your career trajectory.
- A senior-level UXer who has reached the limits of expertise or interest on your current path.
- An early adopter who is looking at the current state of UX and wonders what the future holds.
Program Details:
- A series of workshops that will give you insight, clarity, and an action plan for your road ahead.
- There will be 10 UX transitioners in each cohort, supporting each other on their journeys.
- Each workshop will be a 60–90 minute live session, including discussion, coaching, activities, and real-world applications of the insights and tools.
- The live sessions will be framed by optional self-paced work (e.g., answering reflection questions, running some experiments).
- Tools we’ll use throughout: Zoom, Notion/Google Docs for course material, Miro, LinkedIn for practice.
