About this listen

“Raw. Honest. Truly captivating. Seemingly ordinary people, share an extraordinary journey in Cochrane’s seek and rescue mission where she finds a clearer understanding of self, others and circumstance. She shares this story with transparency while wrapped in humor and insightful intensity with her honest discoveries of who she is, and in some ways who we all are.” (Karen Callan, Author of Just In Time)

In her 30s, Judy Cochrane had by most standards realized the American Dream. In 2000, her husband Bill’s start-up company sold for 90 million. Their college romance and tireless work ethic built a bright future for their family, as well as a portfolio of 35 million. But just as the stars aligned for the 90 million sale of their company, they also fell apart. They went from living in a gated home perched on a mountaintop in Tucson, Arizona, to life in a beat-up rental, without job security and on food stamps.

With pressure at every turn: three young kids, a failing economy, health concerns, a troubled marriage, and the loss of everything the family had built, time alone and getting grounded seemed impossible. With what little faith she could muster, she sought for a miracle. It came in the form of an 11-day house-sitting opportunity in Santa Barbara, California. During Cochrane’s quest, her spiritual guides and new friends included a surfer-musician, a dying writing professor, an Episcopal minister, a gifted intuitive healer, a pair of tattoo artists, a septuagenarian yoga practitioner, a homeless preacher, a foul-mouthed auto mechanic, two dogs and a cat, and the Pacific Ocean.

Since starting Eleven Days, she’s passionately and gratefully inspired to create more work. These are coming soon. Included are excerpts of J.C. Cochrane’s next books:

Carry On: The secret language, lessons, and heart-wrenching love a family experiences when a child endures addiction (copyright 2015)

You Crack Me Up: From broken bones to broken homes and monsters, bullies, and stuff. One of 11 books in the children’s series, Oakie Doakie (copyright 2015)

Judy Cochrane lives in Tucson, Arizona, and Dallas, Texas, with her husband, Bill, and off and on, with her three college-aged children. She often drops everything to get to the beach.

Couldn’t stop listening

What a beautiful story with vulnerability, honesty, courage, humor, and hope. I couldn’t stop listening as Judy took us through her tough challenges and how she walked through them. Truly an inspiration to keep going and keep the faith. The love and energy that comes from reading her story is a true gift that you’ll be so grateful you got to experience!

Can't Dare Without Truth

i met the author's sons when visiting a friend in Dallas. After briefly chatting, their friend suggested I read this book based on some similarities he saw... to say "I loved this book" is an understatement. I love Judy's vulnerability, truth, joy, and grit. I feel like I know her, and somehow know myself more. What a great "love story"

If you like rich white wealthy chicks

Sure she lost all her money and continued to keep her famity together throughout. However, how many truly poor people sign up for New Agey yoga, spiritual retreats, chakra, meditation and generally expensive personal appointments while collecting food stamps.

Amazing read

I don't think I could ever put into words my love for this book. I looked forward to listening every morning. I feel as if I know Judy from reading and her voice is a soothing as they come. I connected to this story and many things resonated with me. Judy had me laughing, crying and blurting out comments throughout my whole read. I am looking forward to reading her other books. Thank you Judy for sharing your story with us. Keep the faith ♡

Simply amazing

I had read this book, but truly didn’t grasp the magnitude of just how much this was going to strike a chord with me. This helped me heal is ways I didn’t know I needed healing. Thank you for sharing your story Judy!

MAGICAL, HEARTFELT & VULNERABLE!

I loved this book! The author wrote her story beautifully with immense vulnerability, humility, and strength. It's a reminder the true magic of the world we live in is always available if we are open to see and receive it. She had me crying at times, laughing at others, and rooting for her sweet family along the way. The author’s style absorbs you into her journey, and I felt I was walking her path alongside her. It is a heartfelt and healing story that delivers a powerful message through the healers we call self-awareness, forgiveness, and love. I highly recommend it!

Captivating and healing

This book is captivating. So much raw and honest detail in every chapter that I felt as if I was with Judy every step of her journey. I laughed, sometimes I was shocked and other times I teared up. This book is more than just a good read, it is healing. It is powerful.

Keep the faith....⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I first heard of this book on a podcast called MFCEO. She was a guest on their show to talk about her book. Sounded interesting and I decided to check it out.

I waited patiently for the audible to come out and boy was it worth the wait!

It was a fabulous story with life lessons attached. It’s thought provoking and self reflecting. It shares intimate stories while making you laugh out loud. And I love the surprise at the end! =)

I’ve already ordered the companion book “Temporarily Closed for self care and spiritual maintenance”!

Thank you Judy!

On a treadmill…in tears!

I downloaded “11 days” got on a treadmill and within a couple of minutes began using my sweat towel for tears.

All the brokenness I’ve been healing from over the years re-surfaced but this time as a reminder of how far I’ve come. Judy beautifully takes the readers on a rollercoaster and every person who gets on it is in for a ride. 3 words I would use to describe her book - healing, shocking & hilarious!!

I listened to the audio book while working out, driving, washing the dishes and even showering and finished it in 2 days. It’s SO GOOD you can’t put it down! Get ready to be awakened from within!!

A memoir that hold a mirror!

🥹🥹🥹😭😭😭….I just finished 11 days, including Bill’s piece.

Judy, what a beautiful and brilliant writer you are. I love the way you write with such authenticity and with your whole ❤️ on your sleeve. I love the way you transitioned from one story to the next and pulled me through.

My daughter heard a small snippet with me and said, “Mama, I really feel like she’s gonna be able to help you.” Thank you for the beautiful teachings and invaluable lessons that this story holds💫!

As a reader, thank you for reminding me of the angels, here and on the other side, that are guiding me. Your story, so powerful, has the power to change lives. It’s changing mine! Thank you for this beautiful 🎁!

You are a beautiful warrior, indeed. “Seek the light, be the light.”

Blessings 🤲🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🤲! This MUST be a 🎬! Wayne Dyer was 🎯!
