About
Mary Rose Tichar is Founder and Director of InsideOut Career Direction.
Ever fascinated with people and their inside stories, complexities of life, and historical and personal context that shaped them, my career began with my own complex story.
My Early Years
I graduated high school with a 1.8 GPA. As I was ruminating about this on the front steps of our porch, my dad came out and asked what was next for me.
I said I didn’t know.
His response? “Let me know when you figure it out.” And he went back into the house.
A feeling of being alone, lost, and confused consumed me. Thankfully, in later years, I found my anchor. As I discovered and embraced my gifts and talents, I desired to help others do the same.
In that process, I came to this core belief »
When others listen, empathize, and recognize your potential and intelligence, you thrive.

After a successful run in career counseling and coaching, I started InsideOut Career Direction in 2015 and discovered one of my greatest joys »
I love bringing people to their “ah ha” moments and confidently moving them forward to the life they want.

I consider myself a Late Bloomer, doing things in my 40’s that most people were doing in their 20’s. I had to work extra hard to find my way, but that experience helps me guide others like you who are willing to be courageous and break out of painful situations for a better life.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.
