About Me

Julianne Meade-Mcintyre

My name is Julianne. 

I am a registered general nurse, with a postgraduate degree in pain management. I struggled with my weight my ENTIRE life, struggled with negative body image and cycles of restrictive and binge eating.

Health and fitness has not always been my passion- from an overweight teenager to a college student who battled both physically and mentally to maintain my weight, manage anxiety and achieve a healthy lifestyle- I really struggled with my confidence, self-esteem and body image throughout my life. when I became pregnant with my first son- I realised the vulnerability women experience entering a new phase in their lives- particularly with regards to exercise and nutrition! I struggled to find individuals whom I trusted with my exercise and nutrition during this time and postpartum as I had complications and restrictions. My postgraduate studies, nursing degree and experience has equipped me with the knowledge and expertise to prescribe exercise, nutrition and treatments that can help with the assessment and treatment of pain conditions- including postpartum complications and pregnancy well-being.

I am a general nurse qualified since 2017 -I have worked in adult care including accident and emergency, trauma settings, general medicine and surgical settings, both in public hospitals and private. I obtained my honors degree in adult nursing from Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen in 2018 and went on to work in Irish hospital settings both HSE and private hospitals.

My own studies always focused on self-management education- those with type 2 diabetes and long-term conditions, how to provide education to individuals and encourage positive change- and most importantly- maintain the changes.   

In 2021- I completed a postgraduate diploma with distinction in pain management which was where I found my calling for the real relevance and prescription of exercise, mobility, stress and sleep management and the study of pain management during pregnancy and postpartum.

Continuing professional development, I have trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, endometriosis management and supplementation dosages for adults in the community including vitamin prescription.

All of my studies and ongoing professional development has led me to this point- and led YOU to my page!

As an online coach to females my previous and ongoing education is there to help YOU, guide and advise you on the right path towards the best version of you- your happiest, most confident YOU!
