Today we’d like to introduce you to Steven Cuoco.
Steven, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
My journey is fueled by passion, purpose, and a relentless drive to make a meaningful impact in the world. It all began with a vision to redefine success, not just for myself but for those I serve. As a two-time award-winning publicist, acclaimed radio host, media personality, journalist, and the visionary founder behind United Angels Dream public relations firm and Power 98.5 satellite radio, I’ve always considered that true success lies in the authenticity of human connection.
From the very beginning, I set out to create something more than just a career—I wanted to build a legacy rooted in integrity and genuine relationships. Rather than chasing fleeting moments of fame or fortune, I chose to focus on the timeless values of trust, reliability, and uncompromising devotion to my client’s stories and aspirations.
In a world often seduced by the allure of celebrity and superficial charm, I made a conscious decision to stay true to my principles, never compromising on my commitment to authenticity and ethical conduct. Every interaction, every partnership, and every endeavor has been guided by a firm belief in the power of genuine human connection.
Through countless challenges and triumphs, I’ve remained resolute in my pursuit of excellence, continually pushing boundaries and redefining what it means to truly serve others. Today, as an International Best-Selling Author, I am humbled by the opportunity to share my story with the world, not just as a series of professional milestones but as a testament to the transformative power of living with purpose and integrity.
As I look to the future, I am filled with gratitude for the journey that has brought me to this moment. My story is not just about where I’ve been or where I am today—it’s about the endless possibilities that lie ahead, fueled by a devotion for making a difference and a commitment to always staying true to myself and those I serve.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Has it been a smooth road? Certainly not. Like any journey worth taking, mine has been marked by twists, turns, and unexpected challenges that tested my resolve and reshaped my perspective. One of the most significant struggles I faced was the constant battle to be recognized as an equal despite my extensive experience and education.
Over the years, I’ve encountered countless obstacles that threatened to derail my progress and shake my confidence. But with each setback, I discovered a reservoir of resilience within myself—a strength born from adversity and fueled by a tenacious determination to persevere.
Through it all, I’ve come to realize that life’s greatest lessons often emerge from its most difficult moments. Each setback served as an opportunity for self-discovery, pushing me to confront my limitations, fears, and embrace my intrinsic worth. Along the way, I’ve learned to navigate the complexities of the professional world with confidence and self-assuredness, knowing that every challenge is an opportunity for growth.
Beyond the realm of professional pursuits, my journey has been deeply influenced by my faith and spirituality. Grounded in a profound relationship with God, I’ve found solace and strength in times of uncertainty, leaning on my faith to guide me through life’s vicissitudes. This spiritual foundation has taught me the importance of discernment and the value of cultivating authentic connections built on trust and mutual respect and to see through illusion.
As I look ahead to future milestones, I carry with me the lessons learned from each phase of my journey. With a renewed sense of purpose and a steadfast belief in my abilities, I am confident in my ability to overcome whatever challenges may lie ahead, embracing the opportunities for growth and transformation that await.

What were you like growing up?
Growing up was a tumultuous journey for me, marked by adversity and challenges that shaped who I am today. From a young age, I faced dyslexia, a speech impediment, and the constant fear of being targeted for being flamboyant, which only worsened amidst an environment of verbal and emotional abuse within my biological family.
At age 7, I was placed in foster care, where I found solace in connecting with others and honing my communication skills as a means of survival. Movies, TV shows, and radio programs became my escape from the chaos and turmoil of my household, where addiction and emotional instability reigned.
Despite the hardships I endured, I clung to my dreams of becoming a successful actor, radio host, model, and superstar. Adopted at age 9, I experienced a transformative shift, finding love and acceptance within my new family. This newfound stability allowed me to pursue my passions with renewed vigor, embracing acting and discovering my love for radio journalism.
Although my journey was fraught with challenges, it ultimately led me to a path of healing and inspiration. Through counseling and self-discovery, I found the courage to pursue my dreams and use the media as a platform for positive change. Despite the fear of judgment and rejection, I remained dedicated in my pursuit of a brighter future, fueled by the belief that my voice could make a difference in the world.
