Are you ready to lose the midlife belly?
Missing how you felt prior to perimenopause? What is happening? Your clothes aren’t fitting right. Staying fit used to be so much easier. What is with the pooch? And your skin seems crinkly!? You’re insecure about being naked in front of your partner now? You aren’t feeling sexy or desirable. Maybe even invisible.
Does any of this sound familiar to you?
You’ve noticed that no matter how hard you try to eat healthy and exercise, the weight around your midsection seems to stick around. It feels frustrating to see your body change in ways you don’t understand or control, making you feel defeated and hopeless about your appearance.
Looking in the mirror brings feelings of frustration and disgust. You may feel disconnected from the confident woman you once were, and the changes in your body—like sagging skin or a less toned silhouette—make you feel less attractive and desirable.
Your favorite clothes no longer fit the way they used to. You may find yourself shying away from certain outfits or styles that you once loved, leading to frustration when getting dressed and a feeling of being trapped in a wardrobe that doesn’t reflect who you are.
You often feel fatigued and lack the energy you once had. Everyday activities can feel overwhelming, and you may struggle to find the motivation to exercise or engage in activities you used to enjoy, further impacting your mood and self-image.
The hormonal fluctuations you experience can lead to mood swings, anxiety, and irritability. This emotional turmoil can make it difficult to enjoy life fully, affecting your relationships and leaving you feeling isolated in your struggles.
I'm here to tell you it doesn't have to be that way.
This could be you…
feeling worthy and confident in your body
Celebrate what you see in the mirror. Even those huge hotel bathroom mirrors! Feel sexy and secure in your body.
Eating what you want and enjoying your workouts

A one of a kind coaching program that will empower you in so many ways. Ready to dive in?
As a woman in my 40s, I’ve experienced firsthand the challenges of navigating a changing body—from the scars and unevenness after removing breast implants to the wrinkles and lines that now grace my face. I’ve had to learn to embrace these changes, moving away from hardcore fitness to find joy in consistent, gentle movement that nourishes my body. It’s disheartening to see so many women critiquing themselves, feeling frustrated and invisible in this process. I created this 90-day program to empower women like us to take control of what we can and to celebrate our unique beauty, helping them discover a more compassionate and joyful approach to aging. Together, we can embrace this journey and redefine what it means to feel confident and fabulous at every stage of life.

Obsessed with my clients
sarah, Minnesota
"She pushed me in ways I hadn't been pushed before, but did so gracefully. She gives such a level of care that makes you feel ultimately loved. I can't say that I actually truly loved myself and who I am until I met Morgan."
theresa, Minnesota
"Her life experiences give her a unique perspective that others truly benefit from. Morgan’s openness, honesty, and personality draw others in and make them feel welcome. She helped open my eyes on a couple things that have helped me grow and become a better individual."
gretchen, minnesota
"Morgan has amazing insight, wisdom and vision far beyond her years. Many of these gifts show up in her role as pied piper of a diverse group of women. Not many women can lead women, much all kinds of women of many different ages."

Meet your body confidence coach, Morgan Barkus
founder of the confidence stage
I started dancing so I could go to graduate school full-time and pay my bills working part-time. Turned out I liked the work. I appreciated the solidarity of the women. We worked hard, supported and encouraged each other, and embraced our uniqueness.
I’ve long since retired from performing on stage and have flourished in this stage of my life. I feel more confident, fit, and grateful than ever, and it wasn’t without a plan, consistency, and celebration of what is.
The Confidence Stage encapsulates the idea of life as a performance where women take center stage, embracing their unique beauty and strength at every stage of life. I’m encouraging you to step into your confidence, own your presence, and feel fabulous as you navigate the different phases of life.
