Meet the Team

Julia Gladstone, RN & Founder


My name is Julia Gladstone, and I was born in the beautiful coastal city of Santa Barbara, California. Growing up surrounded by ocean breezes and mountain views gave me a deep appreciation for nature, community, and the quiet strength found in everyday life. I moved to the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley in 2010.

From an early age, I felt drawn to helping others. That calling eventually led me to pursue a career in nursing — a decision that has shaped my life in more ways than I could have imagined. As a registered nurse, I’ve had the honor of caring for people during some of their most vulnerable moments. It’s work that demands strength, compassion, and resilience, and I find meaning in every shift I work.I specialize in administering IV drip therapy. This role allows me to offer direct, hands-on care that supports healing, hydration, and wellness in real time. Whether I’m working in a clinical setting or helping patients manage ongoing treatments, I take pride in delivering precise, compassionate care.

I’m blessed with a loving family — my husband and I have two wonderful children, our daughter Haven and son Logan, who continue to be my greatest joy and inspiration. Balancing the demands of family and career hasn’t always been easy, but it’s been deeply fulfilling. Whether at home or work, I strive to live with empathy, patience, and purpose. Life, to me, is about showing up for the people who need you and finding grace in the small things.
