In this powerful and transparent conversation, Matt Cahoon  opens up about what life looks like when the picture-perfect model of success collides with real questions of identity, grief, and trust.

From the outside, Matt’s life seemed ideal—career, family, health. But his journey led him into a season that forced him to ask: Who am I? Am I a husband, a dad, or something more?

Matt vulnerably shares the tragic story of losing his wife, child, and unborn child—and how that loss shook the very foundation of his faith. Yet, through pain and questions, God has been faithful to restore, bring healing, and write a new chapter of purpose and hope in his life.

He takes us through Death Valley, California—both physically and spiritually—unpacking how the words of Psalm 23reshaped his understanding of trust:

• Walking through the shadow instead of settling in it

• Recognizing the light beyond the darkness

• Finding both protection and comfort in God’s presence

This episode will challenge and encourage you if you’ve ever struggled to trust God again, battled grief, or wrestled with unmet expectations. Matt shares:

• Why solitude can slip into isolation if you’re not careful

• How community plays a vital role in healing

• Why grief is unique, but perseverance is possible

• Practical advice for navigating trauma, betrayal, and loss
