ESSAY June 2024 - Overcoming My Fear of Women in Meetings - Winfried W., Bonn, Germany

I was driven sheer crazy by the mere knowledge that a woman might be seated in the next meeting. In the beginning, I didn't realize that these women were sitting in that meeting because of the same problem I was having. With the onset of sobriety starting in 2013, this attitude slowly changed.
