About Me
Hey, I’m Morgan
I earned my Bachelor of Arts in psychology, and then my Master’s in Marriage & Family Therapy. I practiced therapy for a year at an outpatient mental health center in a suburb of Minneapolis, and then quit my job, got rid of almost everything I owned, and moved to the Miami area. All I wanted to do was enjoy the weather, go to the beach, and figure out how to start an online coaching business empowering women. Feeling sexy and confident after 40 years old requires a plan of action and support! It’s been working for me and now I want to share what I know with you.

Trapped in a body you don’t feel in control of.
There’s frustration, insecurity, and a longing for the past. It used to be easier to drop weight and stay fit. Now clothes don’t fit the same and your skin hangs different. Where did the pooch come from!? Plus, the lines and that worry line. It’s easy to focus on what aging has changed about your body and how much you don’t like it. Take back the control! Have a plan and get the support so you can feel energetic and attractive again. Being naked shouldn’t feel like an invitation to hate on yourself. Feeling sexy and confident in my 40’s took lining up how I move my body, supplements, what I eat, and even my skincare! I cracked the code and I want to share it with you.

Where it all began
2006
I walked into my first class of graduate school wearing black strappy stripper heels. Maybe not my best choice, and I was on a mission to represent where I was at in my life and prove I didn’t care what anyone thought about me.
2010
I graduated with my Master’s in Marriage & Family degree and secured a full-time job doing therapy at an outpatient mental health center.
2013
I decided to move to the Miami area. I was terribly unhappy in my life. I needed adventure and a drastic change in geography and career. I purchased the morganbarkus.com domain and started my online coaching business.
2015
I felt pressure to figure out what I wanted to be when I grew up and start saving for retirement, so I decided to get a corporate job. I took coaching clients on the side, and I let most of my dreams go in favor of focusing on a stable paycheck.
2020
Took my corporate career to the next level even though there was an ache inside me to serve women in a coaching capacity. I deleted my YouTube channel and it’s 100’s upon 100’s of videos documenting my life because I didn’t want my authentic self to damage my corporate self.
2024
I launched myself back into my online coaching business and rebranded with Your Unapologetic Life. I started a podcast and started taking clients who missed how they felt prior to hitting their 40’s+.
And today I’m still providing you with the plan to help you feel the way you want to in midlife.
