Education

Attended: Colorado State University, Cornell University, and Hunter College (part of the City University of New York).

Graduated: June 1980, Hunter College: BA Degree in Sociology (Summa cum Laude).

I am a life-long learner, the self-taught creator of my web pages, and I enjoy learning new software applications.

Current Work: Writing, Editing, Graphic Design, Presentation Services

I do lots of writing, editing, reviewing, training, speech or class development, and other work online and can “serve the world.”

But, I like the personal touch, so I also hold classes, training, and private consultations in-person throughout Northern Virginia, as far West as Winchester and Front Royal, and as far south as Fredericksburg and Warrenton/Culpeper.

I have created a page called Editing, Writing, Reviewing Fees and Services, under which there should be pages which describe in some detail the various kinds of projects with which I can help you. Click Here for another link about some of the classes I teach. Click Here to learn about my Life Coaching services. Yet, there is so much more!  Keep scrolling down for general “overview” information in all these areas.

Classes ~ I Teach and Train

I don’t just write. I train and teach. One of my classes is about whether to and how to start a business.  Although I don’t speak Spanish, I have an excellent translation into Spanish for the extensive notes in this class.

Other (English only) modules include lessons in basic business and computer skills for (often-timid) beginners. I offer individual instruction for older people who grew up before ‘the computer age.’

I can help them learn in a self-paced, non-judgmental way. They’re not dumb; they just have not been taught and might be fearful, even though they want to learn.

I also provide consulting services and many programs involving personal and spiritual growth.  See the “Who Is “My Get Well Guru?” section below.

A part of my mission is to create training modules for clients, as well as to teach classes to my own clients. I can develop and train on soft-skill topics and in highly technical topics. Click Here for examples.   

I Can Help You “Change Your Life.“

Let’s start with the personal, followed by potential business needs.

I am a certified Life Coach, Transpersonal Hypnotherapist, Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP) and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/”tapping”) practitioner, Reiki Master, and more. Change is possible if you learn the proper tools and techniques. I’ll be happy to teach you.

You may choose to Change Your Life in several ways, such as:

• changing habits that no longer serve you well
• determining career options
• finding health solutions
• improving relationships
• enhancing spiritual knowledge and practice
• learning how to release fears, phobias, stress, PTSD, or other trauma symptoms
• investing in personal growth.
• considering starting a business 

Conceivably, you’re just in transition as you “Age to a New Stage!”

To see periodic posts related to changing your life and/or philosophical ideas that help you change how you see things, try my FB pages. Change Your Life and NancyKnows.

Before reading further, if you already know you are interested in a free, initial consultation and/or you want more information, feel free to contact me now at MyPersuasivePresentations@gmail.com and put “Consultation Inquiry” in the subject line. Otherwise, please keep reading.     

Let’s Get Down  To Business

I’ve  Done a Lot More than being a Writer, Editor, Trainer, Etc.

In addition to being a Life Coach, writer/editor, and presenter, I am a seasoned manager who has provided leadership, developed training presentations, and directed a multitude of administrative operations. I’ve worked for:

• international corporations
• small businesses
• state agencies
• higher education
• non-profits.

My duties ranged from fiscal operations to emergency operations. It went from grants administration to police and parking enforcement, and from procurement and contract administration to event planning and human resource functions.

I have trained staff and developed operations and personnel policies and processes throughout my work life. This in-depth experience makes me familiar with the fundamentals of all types of functions and organizations.

My varied and extensive background knowledge helps me help you. We can collaborate on training modules, as well as develop policies and procedures, to ensure you are covered for audits.

Those “p&p’s” can be codified in process-oriented forms to help your employees (and you) know and remember what needs to be done in the way of best practices.

That also enhances the probability that you and your employees comply with various laws, regulations, and policies you have set for your company or project.   

Who Is “My Get Well Guru?”

This very same Nancy (Moi) is certified in a number of wellness modalities, commonly referred to as “Complementary and Alternative Medicine.”  As a Life Coach, Spiritual Counselor, Transpersonal Hypnotherapist, NLP practitioner, and holistic healer (aka My Get Well Guru), I write and teach about meditation, metaphysics, and Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM).

HypnoMeditations and the Sleep Like a Baby Guided Meditation

I create HypnoMeditations to help people heal themselves and overcome limiting beliefs, emotions, and patterns of behavior. The picture you see here is one of my HypnoMeditations, called Sleep Like A Baby, which has been proven to help people sleep. (It actually put the sound engineer to sleep while we were recording it!)

My Other Website

(for My Get Well Guru)

You will see more information about those kinds of products and services on another of my websites:  www.getwell.guru.  Please follow me there, too. If you just want tips and articles from many sources about wellness, I recommend my FB page for My Get Well Guru.

Whatever your need, I probably can help you because of my vast life and work experience, my knowledge of self-help techniques which can be used in any and all of the above situations, and my joy in serving you.    

What About Nancy Wyatt, the Volunteer?

My background is more colorful and unusual than I’ll admit, but, here’s a glimpse. I  volunteered in shelters for homeless people and (with “Lifers”) at Sing Sing prison. I’ve been a fashion model, served on Boards of Directors, served as “host family” for people from other countries, and worked with AIDS patients. In Maryland, I once hosted a radio show for sight-impaired listeners. Along with my “day job,” I have spent over thirty years as a Complementary and Alternative Medicine practitioner.

Volunteering at a HUGE Shelter in Washington, D.C. Resulted in Theatrical Performances and the Publication of a Book!

I became the Producer/Director of a group of homeless individuals whom I conscripted into an acting troupe comprised of shelter residents in Washington, D.C. That is a whole story unto itself. These guys got so good at performing that I was accused of hiring “real actors to pretend they are homeless people!”

Click Here to learn how much fun I had in volunteering with these people who were suffering from homelessness, addiction, AIDS, and more. Some of them are pictured here. I scripted their stories, which now are available in a playbook, called “3 Hots and a Cot.” Click Here to see an example. Happily, all of those friends (the ones who did not die of AIDS, diabetes, etc.) left the shelter and returned to school, jobs, families, and/or started new productive lives. Consequently, I have been left to do the performances as a one-woman show to continue to raise awareness and funds for organizations working on these issues.

Nancy Knows Variety IS The Spice of Life!

So, yes, I have written everything from scripts for the performing arts to newsletters, to complex IT proposals. My workplace memoranda have been lovingly nicknamed, “memobilia.”  There is more, but I’ll spare you. If you missed it at the beginning of this blog, here is the link to the awards I’ve received for community service.     

Writer/Editor Fees by the Hour or by the Project

My fees vary, depending on whether you choose editing, writing, or reviewing services and/or on whether you choose spiritual growth counseling or a formal life coaching program. Each is different and requires differing amounts of “behind the scenes” work from me in addition to any appointments we schedule.

Fees also are influenced by the:

• amount of lead time you provide
• degree of complexity involved in the work
• amount of research involved.
• travel requirements
• ability to do the work and transmit it online for the most part.

If you put me on retainer for six months or longer, I’ll give you a reduced rate. You also may qualify in other ways to be one of my VIP Clients. In addition, I occasionally give discounts to specific networking group members and to worthy causes. Contact me for details.

LET’S TALK!  HELP IS ON THE WAY!

How ‘About a FREE Sip & Share Session on Zoom?

Or, contact me with other ideas and questions! I’ll be happy to hear from you. MyPersuasivePresentations@gmail.com.

We also could hold that aforementioned FREE Sip & Share session on Zoom to brainstorm about what’s on your mind. Let me know if you’d like to schedule a free chat. Put “Request Sip & Share Session” in the subject line. We’ll set up a time to give you a free initial consultation of up to 30 minutes. Unless you live near me, we’ll probably meet via Zoom or a similar media, rather than in-person, as I would have preferred. It’s okay. We can figure it out in a way that suits us.
