EP 340: Cyrus’s Recovery Story
Host: Drifter
Guest: Cyrus
Meet Cyrus Norcross: A Journey to Sobriety and Advocacy
Cyrus Norcross started his journey to sobriety on May 25, 2019. But Cyrus is more than his journey through addiction; he's also dedicated to serving others, telling stories, and making a difference.
He has battled his own personal demons and wrestled with alcohol addiction, a journey that led him to the transformative path of sobriety. His story serves as an inspiring example of triumph over adversity and the importance of loving one's self and accepting one's flaws in recovery.
Before his recovery, Cyrus served as an Army Ranger, showing bravery and commitment. He joined in 2007, spent four years with the 75th Ranger Regiment, and two more with the 4th Infantry Division. He deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, earning an honorable discharge in 2013.
Afterward, he became a military contractor, training the Royal Air Force in ground maneuvers. His role involved simulating encounters with terrorist forces, gathering intelligence, and disrupting their networks. He's also a contributing author in the book "Violence of Action: The Untold Stories of the 75th Ranger Regiment in the War on Terror."
Cyrus is also a award-winning journalist from the Navajo Nation. His articles and photos have appeared in Indian Country Today, Native News Online, The Navajo Times, and Source New Mexico. He's known for investigating the missing and murdered indigenous people on the Navajo Nation, but he covers a wide range of topics, from sports to art festivals.
He's won journalism awards from the Military Veterans in Journalism Association, the Native American Journalists Association, and the Arizona Newspaper Association.
Cyrus is also working on documentary about K9 search and rescue on the Navajo Nation. He's writing a book about his experiences at the 2016 Standing Rock Protest on the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation, where people fought against the Dakota Access Pipeline.
Join us on the Sobertown Podcast to hear Cyrus Norcross's inspiring journey—from military service to journalism to sobriety advocacy. His story is all about redemption, resilience, and a relentless drive to create a brighter future for everyone.
