Antonio Castellucci: Real Estate Entrepreneur & Napa Valley Vintner
A Club Member since 2004, real estate investor, entrepreneur, and vintner, Antonio Castellucci embodies the American dream. Born in Italy and raised in Buenos Aires, he moved to the United States in his early twenties — carrying with him a strong work ethic, an eye for opportunity, and a deep sense of family heritage. He built a successful career in residential development in the Bay Area, forging his own path as an entrepreneur.
But a getaway property in Napa Valley soon sparked something more. What began as a retreat evolved into Castellucci Napa Valley, a boutique winery shaped by generations of family passion and purpose.

Christine Handy: Cancer Disruptor & Author
In this episode, breast cancer survivor, keynote speaker, author, model, and Club Member since 2003, Christine Handy shares her remarkable journey through illness, identity, and reinvention. From the runways of Miami and New York to the isolating world of hospital rooms and chemotherapy, Christine’s life was dramatically reshaped by a breast cancer diagnosis that forced her to confront everything she once believed about beauty, strength, and self-worth.
Rather than retreat, Christine emerged with a renewed sense of purpose. Through deep faith, a tight circle of devoted friends, and a desire to serve others, she became a voice for women navigating illness, self-image, and healing. Her memoir Walk Beside Me has inspired thousands, and her story now lives on in the award-winning film Hello Beautiful. In this powerful conversation, Christine reflects on the courage it takes to be vulnerable, the grace found in receiving help, and the legacy that can come from turning personal pain into public light.
