About Me
About Me, Nancy!
Hi, I’m Nancy Wolk. I am a Certified Professional Coach specializing in helping women who deal with challenging personal situations or life transitions. Chances are if you’ve found my site, you, like my clients, are grappling with change, managing a health issue, or feeling unbalanced or unsatisfied with aspects of your life.
With a collaborative and positive approach, I help clients make decisions that resonate with themselves at the deepest level, whether that means addressing a challenge in a way that feels comfortable, assembling a supportive personal or medical team, or finding methods to achieve balance, confidence and fulfillment.
I want to help you move forward confidently—that means finding courage and peace, even during difficult times, will always be at the forefront of our work together.
My Niches…
I help all my clients successfully navigate personal development issues and life transition events. I specialize in working with:
- women who have genetic mutations that put them at a much higher risk of being diagnosed with breast cancer.
- people dealing with IVF.
- people who struggle with weight management and are taking injectable and oral weight loss medications.
and Why
My work has its roots in my own life experiences. I have a genetic mutation that puts me at a very high risk for developing breast cancer, and I have also dealt with infertility. (You can read more about my personal experiences on the Genetic Mutation and Infertility pages.) Having lived through these specific experiences, I know it can be difficult to feel confident making major life decisions when they can feel so big and overwhelming, and I also know what is needed to persevere and ultimately thrive. Wanting to share my toolkit and support others navigating similar challenges was a big reason as to why I became a coach.
Additionally, through my partnership with Dr. Caroline Messer (wellbymesser.com), an incredibly talented and compassionate Manhattan-based endocrinologist, I regularly work with clients using weight loss medication. My client-centered approach to coaching helps my clients tune out the background noise and opinions of others, so that they are able to stay focused on what matters to them and their specific weight loss and health goals. In doing so they can form a sound action plan and comfortably move forward.
