Morgan is a North Carolina native who currently resides there with her husband and rescue pup, Olaf.
She earned her bachelor's degree in Kinesiology and Spanish from Occidental College in Los Angeles and then spent 3 years in Chicago working in geriatric primary care, teaching yoga and barre classes and running her nutrition business. After attending medical school at Wake Forest University, she returned to her hometown to begin residency training in family medicine. During that time, she sustained a traumatic brain injury in a boating accident, which ultimately led her to step away from medicine to focus on full-time rehabilitation.
Before and during medical school, Morgan taught power and vinyasa yoga, but her recovery journey inspired a shift toward gentle and adaptive yoga. She has completed extensive yoga training, including a 200-hour certification in 2017, a 50-hour training in 2018, and a chair yoga certification in 2019. Her specialized work in brain injury recovery led her to complete LoveYourBrain Level 1 training in 2023 and Level 2 in 2024. She has begun training to become a certified yoga therapist, a journey that includes a 300-hour yoga teacher training; upon completion, she will be both a 500-hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-500) and a certified yoga therapist.
Morgan is a facilitator for LoveYourBrain's Mindset program and hosts a weekly TBI support group, the Sharing and Caring Circle, on Zoom.
Beyond yoga, Morgan enjoys gardening, crochet, painting, pottery, adaptive boxing, strength training, and spending as much time as possible at the beach.
