Nancy J. McKay is a life and Equus coach who helps women stop over-drinking. She is the founder of amazing Outlook Coaching and works with women virtually and with the help of horses to uncover the limiting beliefs and behaviors that are keeping them stuck in the f*ing muck. Nancy quit drinking in 2009.Nancy was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2015, and that changed her whole perspective in life. She came out feeling very unfulfilled in her work. Having been brought up chasing the dollars, Nancy knew she had to succeed financially. She made a good living in her career, but she knew it was time to shift to what was feeding her soul. The circumstances in her job were not going to change, and if she was unhappy, she needed to do something about it. She dove back into personal development, a space that she had dipped her toes in for many years. That was what she wanted to do, and she started working with a coach to learn how to be a good coach.At 60, Nancy enrolled in a coaching program, and at 62, she retired from her corporate job to start her own business. Nancy is now 65, and she is living her dream.

Today I have a conversation with Nancy McKay who shares her very personal story around her journey with alcohol. In our society, there is such a stigma around alcoholism, yet there is so much focus (and pressure!) to drink, especially in quarantine times. Nancy vulnerably shares her journey, her rock bottom & her perspectives on why there is such a stigma around alcoholism in today's society. I also share a pretty vulnerable moment around my own relationship with alcohol. About Nancy: Nancy J. McKay is the Founder of Amazing Outlook Coaching, LLC.
