WGCNA is not a bioconductor package so you're not very likely to get informative answers here. Try posting this to R-SIG-Mac (R special interest group - Mac), see https://www.r-project.org/mail.html

If you want to install source packages on MacOS, you have to also have the compilers available, which is not something that happens by default. For R-4.0.0 (which you should be using, but without output from running sessionInfo, it's a mystery to us) you can just use the XCode tools.

That said, it does appear that there is a MacOS binary for WGCNA at CRAN. And additionally, WGCNA isn't actually a Bioconductor package (although people do seem to post about it here), so you should actually be asking about it on r-help@r-project.org.
