Tackling Disruptions in Sobriety Meetings with Karen

The next time somebody is disrupting you in a meeting, ask yourself: is this about them or you? And is it about you learning more patience, tolerance and love? Or is it in fact interfering with people's enjoyment and ability to be in that space and enjoy that meeting.
