Today on Respect Life Radio, Deacon Geoff is joined by Costanza Miriano, an Italian wife, mother of four and internationally known blogger with more than 3 million readers. Costanza shares insights from her new book, Blessed is the Day We “Got It Wrong”, which reflects on the beauty, humor and grace found in the messy, imperfect moments of family life.
Her book offers a witty, practical and deeply spiritual guide to thriving in marriage, drawing from her own experiences and real-life stories. With humor and honesty, she explains why holiness grows through struggle, why spouses should stop trying to change each other and how prayer strengthens marital love. Miriano also outlines ten “maintenance rules” for keeping love alive, navigating crises and supporting a spouse through challenges.
Together, Deacon Geoff and Costanza explore how embracing our limitations opens the door to holiness, why joy grows when we stop trying to control everything, and how family life becomes a school of love when lived with trust in God. She also highlights the value of embracing the Cross, overcoming obstacles to conversion and presenting a unified front in parenting. If you are interested in purchasing the book, you can find it here.
