I'd go back to the day I was told I had breast cancer. I'd reassure myself that everything would be okay and that it would turn out to be a good thing.

Her Story

About Lenay

Lenay Taylor is an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach and the Founder of Transform Your Life, where she helps individuals facing health challenges take greater control of their health and transform their lives. Her work focuses particularly on women navigating breast cancer and incorporates areas such as food, gratitude, pain, passion, nutrition, and holistic wellness. She also offers life coaching services and works with clients through one-on-one support and workshops focused on women's wellness and integrative health.

Lenay holds a Bachelor of Arts in Social Work from the University of Wisconsin–Madison and completed additional studies at Luther College. She also holds a certification in Integrative Nutrition. Her professional perspective is informed by her own experience as a cancer survivor and her belief that recovery should address the whole person. She is also the author of Reversing Cancer, through which she shares her experiences and perspectives on navigating health and cancer recovery.

Throughout her career, Lenay has demonstrated persistence, resilience, and a commitment to lifelong learning. Before establishing Transform Your Life, she operated her own medical transcription business for 17 years while raising her children and also worked as a social worker in nursing homes and in healthcare-related retail. She describes “never give up” and “always be learning” as her two primary mantras, reflecting the determination and curiosity that continue to shape her work helping others navigate significant health challenges.

Her Interview

Ten minutes with Lenay

01What do you attribute your success to?

I attribute my success to two guiding principles: never giving up and always continuing to learn. These are my two main mantras, and I remain committed to them in both my personal and professional life. I am also too stubborn to quit, which has helped me remain persistent through challenges and continue moving forward.

02What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?

I encourage young women to identify what genuinely interests them and explore how those interests could potentially be developed into a business or career. I believe in taking the time to conduct an honest self-inventory of your interests and strengths. For me, that process took several months before I realized I could build a career around medical transcription because of my strong interest in the medical field.
