This might be one of our most important conversations yet.

In this episode of Till the Wheels Fall Off, Matt and Paige take a deeper look at how patriarchy still influences recovery, relationships, and the systems that claim to support healing. We break down how women are often expected to stay silent, show grace, and be endlessly patient, even in situations that cause deep emotional harm.

We explore the outdated beliefs that shaped programs like AA and Al-Anon, the gender roles passed down through generations, and the subtle ways control and emotional labor continue to fall on women. This is not a political conversation, it’s a human one. It’s about accountability, equality, and what a real partnership looks like.

Whether you’ve been told to let things go, suppress your anger, or wait for someone else to get it together, this episode will help you name what’s really going on.
