Troubleshooting Data Migration:
Three things...
A. Start Here: Move your Content to a new Mac - Apple Support
B. Use a Time Machine Backup:
You need to backup your Mac, recently? If so, then restore your Mac from that. You'd backup you Mac prior to doing so, and then restore your data from the backup you just created, through use of Migration Assistant.
C. Mount the Drive:
Boot into Recovery Mode (Hold Down: [Command + R] upon boot). Then, using Disk Utility, see if the Hard Drive is seem. If it is, then see if you need to click the “Mount’ button for it. Try rebooting once more. If of no success, then click unmount button, and then the mount button. Try rebooting once more.

Why is that, what is the issue...
A cable connection is preferred over wifi.
It seems easier if you have backup drive with USB cable...
A new Mac with thunderbolt/usbC you need an adapter
The most trouble free way to move to a new machine, is using the Setup Assistant on the initial boot of a brand new machine— you have one shot here. Set up your MacBook Pro - Apple Support
The second best way is use the Migration Assistant.
