About Morgan
Me again. Hey!
After a breakup, I was on the floor. Literally. I was laying in the fetal position, crying. I’d been crying. I didn’t expect it to hit that hard. I knew the relationship wasn’t right anymore — and still, I felt grief, confusion, loneliness. Like I had all this space and no idea how to fill it.
So I did what I could with what I had. I got a coach. I journaled. I moved my body every single day — walked, lifted weights, cried on yoga mats. I connected with my closest girlfriends, set powerful intentions, and kept showing up for myself. And in the process, I realized: I finally felt free. Free of someone else’s fears. Free to dream again. Free to build something entirely mine.
That’s when I started this business. Because I knew I couldn’t be the only one feeling all of that — the ache, the fear, the freedom. If you’re standing in that same uncertain space right now, I want you to know: you don’t have to figure it out alone. You can take one step. You can take your power back. And I can help you do it.

You’re resilient, and you’re feeling lost.
The silence is louder than you thought. The freedom is heavier than you imagined. And no one really gets how hard it is to rebuild you.
One minute, you’re sure you made the right choice. The next, you’re staring at the ceiling wondering if you’re starting over… or falling apart. You miss having someone to talk to. You question everything — your worth, your future, your strength. And under it all is this ache: I don’t want to feel like this anymore.
Imagine waking up with clarity again. Feeling like yourself in your body. Setting boundaries without second-guessing. Feeling powerful in your decisions, playful in your joy, proud of the woman you’re becoming. That’s not a fantasy — it’s what happens when you rebuild with intention, with tools, and with someone who’s walked this road before you.
That’s what Get Your Sparkle Back is here for. My 90-day coaching program isn’t about “getting over it.” It’s about reclaiming you. The you that trusts herself. The you that leads her own life. The you that knows this breakup isn’t the end — it’s your turning point.
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. I started a podcast and launched a 90-day coaching program for women looking to rebuild after a breakup.
Today? I’m as courageous and bold as ever. If you’d like to feel that way too message me!
