In this raw and honest interview, our guest opens up about his hidden battle with alcoholism, from secret drinking and denial to detoxing alone, hospitalization, and finally entering treatment at First Responder Wellness.

He shares the moment he told his wife “I can’t stop drinking,” and what recovery has given back to his life, his family, and his purpose in law enforcement.

This story is about honesty, redemption, and hope, and a reminder that no one has to do this alone.

Today our host Chris Logan talks with retired Westminster PD officer Cord about the real toll of the job, the suicide of his first FTO, and how the tragedy pushed Cord into mental health advocacy. They cover identity beyond the badge, why "heroes don't ask for help" is deadly, peer support, and a push for annual, confidential wellness visits for police, fire, dispatch, and EMS.

If you're a first responder, clinician, or leader, share this with your team. It's not a sign of weakness to ask for help. It's a sign of strength.

Rozzy's story is raw and real. From losing his dad to suicide at 11, to becoming a cop at 20, to taking in his 15-year-old nephew, he carried the weight for years without ever processing it.

Through hard work Rozzy found healing and a new purpose. Today, he is no longer defined by his past and he wants every first responder to know that asking for help isn't weakness, it's strength.
