Speaker -
A speaker meeting begins with one addict sharing their story, or sharing for a while on a designated topic, such as a few steps, or one of the principles of recovery. The speaker often shares for half an hour to an hour, depending on how much they have to share, and afterward the floor is opened up for others to share as in a normal meeting. This is a chance for one person to share their experience, strength, and hope so that others may relate to their story, and the feelings that bring us all to recovery.
