EP 226: In this powerful episode of Revival Town Podcast, we sit down with Matt Cochran, who shares the heart-wrenching and life-altering story of the day his mother was tragically shot to death by his own father when Matt was just 15 years old. Awakened in the middle of the night by police, Matt faced an unimaginable loss and was thrust into a life of profound pain and confusion. Yet, through incredible strength, faith, and grace, Matt chose the path of forgiveness. He opens up about how he forgave his father, their journey toward reconciliation, and how this unimaginable tragedy shaped his life. This episode is a raw and moving conversation about love, loss, and the power of forgiveness.

Send us a Text Message.This week on The Gimme Three Podcast, co-host Bella Efstratis is joined by her good friend Matt Cochran, a cinephile and history buff, for a deep dive into America's complex relationship with war in cinema. Together, they explore three films that arguably blur the line between being anti-war and glorifying it.Matt's three film recommendations for this episode include:Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket (1987)Sam Mendes' Jarhead (2005)Kathryn Bigelow's The Hurt Locker (2009)Throughout the episode, Matt provides in-depth history lessons on each war depicted in the films we discuss, allowing us to analyze them not only within their historical contexts but also considering the cultural climate in which they were released.Together, we break down the elements we appreciated in each film while also reflecting on our own contradictions in grappling with the allure of war movies.And, of course, we dive into whether these films really hit the mark with their anti-war message or miss it entirely. Expect equal praise and criticism of these iconic films!

“The only thing we can do is ADAPT” Building a UNIFIED LIFE - both with Nature and others requires GIVING UP how we think things should be. Constance Lynn and Matt Cochran each embody this way of being, as you'll soon find out. By deeply listening for what wants to happen, they live in tranquility with one another while stewarding pristine Utahn land. Host Shawn Berry and these two highly connected humans deliver poignant reflections on living harmoniously on undeveloped land, using Nature for archetypal insights, and crafting a sustainable vision.   Highlights: [05:03] Constance's and Matt's earliest memories of deep nature connection. [13:29] The similarities between ecosystems' ability to heal and our bodies' immune system.  [16:32] How dedicated time in nature led Matt to discover his truth. [26:20] Can land communicate to us through dreams? [35:35] How the concept of rewilding helped Constance and Matt co-create a vision. [43:02] “You expect things to happen a certain way, but they don't. They happen in their own way” [51:23] How to balance planning while simultaneously allowing flow. [1:04:01] Why using the lens of Rites of Passage is a helpful tool for navigating life. [1:09:31] Why nature offers infinite metaphors and examples that can be used to boost understanding.   Matt Cochran & Constance Lynn Links: @ravendreamtracking   Rising Man Links: The DOJO || A 4 Day Self-Mastery & Embodied Leadership Training - September 7th-10th 2023 in Austin, TX!

Matt Cochran joins me again, this time to share how dreamwork, especially in connection with men's work, is a part of his role in The Great Turning. Click Play to hear us talk about:how Matt relates to the "three stories of our time" (and how these compare to a rite of passage, or initiation)what dreams are for him and the people he works with (a navigational tool; a fierce, viable presence; a glimpse of the mythic level of our lives)men's work in Matt's life (including his shift from the loneliness of a lone wolf to non-competitive brotherhood with other men)how "the initiated masculine" is a part of The Great Turningmapping and protecting landscapes, from inside and outside of existing legal structureslooking to the Earth as a role model, not as a victimand one of Matt's own most significant dreamsAfter you listen, leave a comment at turningseason.com/episode3 and let me know what struck you. I'm curious what you think/feel/wonder about this conversation.And remember to share your book recommendations for Turning Season's bookshop!Matt Cochran is a dreamworker, wilderness guide, and modern homesteader. Raised in California, he's spent his adult life in the Innerwest. First as a wandering poet, then as an Exploration Geologist in Nevada, a Surveyor/Mapper in Colorado and Montana, and a wilderness guide in the Southwest, he's had a continued relationship with the wild landscapes of the Innerwest. With his partner, he's created a world-built-by-hand and they spend much of their time running their modern homestead. In midlife, Matt earned an MA at Pacifica Graduate School in Depth Psychology focusing on dreams and ecopsychology. In hindsight, he sees that he took his mapping skills to the inner territories, and recognizes that the language of wild nature corresponds to the language of dreams. He's trained in Rites of Passage with Animas Valley Institute and been involved in Men's Work through Michael Meade and the Rising Man Movement. Matt is now blending all these worlds into the offering of Raven Dream Tracking, where he focuses on dynamic dreamwork and works with men in what he calls Wolfpack Dreaming. As Matt says, “Dreams to me are an incredible navigation tool and a fierce, viable presence. They give us life from the hidden places within, and a generative, creative and visionary capacity in the world without.”Show notes: turningseason.com/episode3Music by East Forest

Something new and much more personal for this Full Moon: You're about to hear me share a series of 3 of the most potent dreams of my life, and how they've been woven into my healing.There's the personal physical level, the ancestral, and the societal levels. There's a yurt at the sandy confluence of two rivers; a computer to reprogram; a devil prince; an invader and a martial arts master; a golden sword; and a poem about autoimmunity, hatred, and living “In the Time of Choice.” It's a full two hours!May this bring you some a-ha's of your own, a different perspective, or new questions to explore.I'm the guest in this conversation, hosted by my friend Steve Ernenwein, the dreamer in our recorded dream group (Episode 33). This is an episode of the podcast Steve hosts with JM DeBord, called The Dreams that Shape Us. They are breaking down the myth that “dreams don't mean anything” one powerful story at a time. I know if you're here, you probably don't think “dreams don't mean anything,” so for you their show is a delicious chance to hear individual people thoroughly share their powerful dreams, with original music and dreamy sounds by Steve in every episode. So after you listen to this, be sure to check out their podcast, The Dreams that Shape Us, for more.This is Episode 35 of The Dreamers' Den Podcast and the final one that will be released under this name. After a pause for some deep, slow breaths, quite a bit of website work, and a few exciting conversations, I will be back on the Full Moon in September and this podcast will show up in your feed under a new name:Turning Season.You'll be hearing conversations between me and all kinds of healers and changemakers of “The Great Turning” — which is a name for this enormous transition humanity is making toward life-sustaining societies.If you're feeling concerned (or beyond concerned!) about “the great unraveling,” this podcast will become your regular dose of active hope, heart-to-heart connection, expanded awareness of how much is being done already, and glimpse of what's possible.The first few conversations will be with dreamworkers whose contribution to the Great Turning includes their dreamwork. You'll hear from Ariella Daly again, about natural beekeeping, and bees as wisdom teachers. Matt Cochran will return to talk about men's work. I'll share more about my role as a Classical Chinese Medicine practitioner, parent, grower of food, and … host of Turning Season Podcast!With future guests I'll be diving into everything from circular economics to personal trauma healing; composting toilets to decolonization; art as activism to protecting thriving ecosystems; new technological innovations to pleasure as revolutionary…You get the idea.I'm also excited to talk with people who might not identify as a healer or a changemaker, an activist or a visionary, but are rising to their role in the Great Turning in the way they live their everyday lives.

Ready to hear about dreaming with a "pack," the language of wild nature, initiation into manhood, and why dreams are a trustworthy source of navigation and wisdom? Yes? That's what I said, too. Click Play now to listen to my conversation with Matt Cochran, a dreamworker and a dear friend of mine. He has been engaging with dreams for decades and currently offers dreamwork, one-on-one and in groups, focusing on working with men. Matt has an MA in Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate School and has spent time as a wandering poet, a surveyor and mapper, and a wilderness guide. He's fluent in the language of dreams and of the wilderness (leaving plenty of room for both to stay mysterious, too). You'll hear us talk about how dreaming is connected to place - to the locations we're in - and what has come to him (and to me) through dreams about the land we call home. We talk about why Matt thinks men have been drawn to dreamwork circles less frequently than women, and why his men's dream groups are meeting an important need now. All that, and so much more.

How can we make dreams more lifelike and life more dreamlike? Matt Cochran explores this question and teaches us the ineffable and mysterious power of dreamtime. Besides earning an MA in Depth Psychology, Matt is a lifelong student of ancient religions, rites of passage, and geology, making for a highly valuable and unique type of wisdom. We cover how to take your incredible imagination and use it as a generative force, why there's no such thing as “just a dream”, and how a mythic identity can serve men.   Show Notes: Does every man need to be initiated? Are dreamers unfairly painted as being unproductive? How dreams can be an initiatory process Why there's no such thing as “just a dream” Do we have dreams or do dreams have us? How sleep deprivation can be used intentionally to invite the merging of the dream world with the waking world.  How dreams can bring the depths of our souls towards the more conscious aspects of our brains Why there is nothing random about dreaming The value of a men's team to point out our blind spots How dreams can be in service of the collective, as well as just for the individual Why do we have repetitive dreams? Why dreams give men a sense of mythic identity What does the world need most from men?   Connect with Matt Cochran:   Website | Ravendreamtracking.com Rising Man Links: Ignite | 12 week online program designed to ignite your purpose and propel you into freedom.

Matt is the owner and trainer of Cochran K9 Training based in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. He is in the early stages of his dog training business and is totally killing it. We chatted about his struggles with finding his voice on social media, how Gary Vee inspired him to finally start posting dog content, the power of gratitude and so much more. I really enjoyed this conversation and had a lot of fun getting to know Matt a bit more and hearing about his new journey into the world of pro dog training.

On this special episode, we have the very talented musician Matt Cochran! That's right, we now have musicians too. It was really cool watching Matt riff on his synthesizer and saxophone and we still found a way for him to do the open mic portion of the show. This week on crime stories a woman beats up a man for some crab legs at an Alabama seafood buffet, (we've all been there right?), we learn that beautiful women in fedoras are just tricking us into liking them, and we find out it's easier to masturbate alone.  FB: The Open Mike PodcastTwitter: @openmike5000IG: @theopenmikepodcastYoutube: The Open Mike PodcastSupport the show (https://venmo.com/code?user_id=2866632300953600404)

This is a story/essay/poetic monologue from Matt Cochran (Episode #3) from the Boulder Harvest Festival 2018. Matt wrote a beautiful piece about place and nature and dreaming us all awake. He came over so we could record the essay and I put some East Forest music to the background for a little radio play of sorts. Enjoy. ravendreamtracking.com eastforest.org

The constant mantra of the 2016 Presidential election is that it's all about the Supreme Court. That's true, but neither major party candidate is fit to select Justices to the Court. What we need in this delicate time in our nation's history is someone who will uphold the Constitution and leave behind a legacy of liberty to the next generation. Matt Cochran talks in today's episode about the consequences of electing Trump or Clinton.

Matt Cochran – Sun, Jul 06, 2014 at Christ Fellowship of Tampa Philippians 2:1-16 (ESV) 1So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, 2complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. 3Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. 4Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. 5Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 9Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the nam --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mjcpodcast/support

Matt Cochran – Sun, Jun 22, 2014 at Christ Fellowship of Tampa 1 Corinthians 4:4-13 4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known. 13So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mjcpodcast/support
