Episode #143: Insights on Intimacy with God in Difficult Times


When Erin Cuccio lost her fourth son in early labor, she was determined to find the purpose in the pain. At the same time, Erin’s family was propelled into great change, and all of it left her feeling very unraveled. With a shattered heart raw and exposed, knots that had settled into her soul for years rose to the surface and begged to be untangled. She began to wonder if there might be an unexpected gift in this grief. What if the wasn’t just about losing Jacob but also about finding herself?

Erin Cuccio is an author, speaker, podcast host, and executive coach. After more than a decade as an educator, she now serves as Chief Operating Officer of the Cuccio Household. She spends her time chasing her dreams by day and ubering her three boys at night while helping to support her husband’s entrepreneurial endeavors through marketing and organizational systems. Her hidden talents are bringing order to any kind of chaos, navigating never-ending loads of laundry, and sneaking in a quiet cup of coffee wherever she can. 

Today on UnPerfect, Erin is sharing some rich morsels of truth to draw us deeper into intimacy with God in spite of (and because of) our current season. Her words are treasures and I’m grateful for the privilege of offering them as a gift to you!
