Today we're talking about the power of community, resilience, and what it really means to show up bravely in the caregiver parenting journey. My guest is fellow community builder and mom on a mission Jessica Patay, the founder of We Are Brave Together, a global community supporting moms raising children with disabilities and other unique needs. Jessica's work is deeply rooted in her own experience as a caregiving mom to her son Ryan, who was diagnosed with Prader-Willi syndrome, and her mission is all about making sure no parent has to walk this path alone. In our conversation, Jessica shares her story and the inspiration behind building such a powerful, life-giving community for mothers. We talk about the isolation so many caregivers experience, the importance of connection and support, and what it looks like to cultivate resilience in the midst of ongoing challenges. Jessica also offers practical, compassionate insights for parents who are feeling overwhelmed, reminding us that even in the hardest seasons, we are not alone—and we were never meant to do this by ourselves. About Jessica Patay  Jessica Patay is passionate about serving caregiving moms and creating authentic communities.  She has always fostered deep, life-giving friendships and has been intentional about her community of girlfriends.  As a caregiving mom herself, this passion carries on as she gathers women to encourage them, mentor them, inspire them, and validate their intense and precious journeys. Her own story as a mom to a child with a disability, began in 2003 when her second son, Ryan, was born and diagnosed with a rare, genetic disorder, called Prader-Willi syndrome. Within two days of receiving this diagnosis, she received a phone call from a mentor mom from the Prader-Willi California Foundation.  Immediately she felt relief and comfort knowing she was NOT ALONE. Thankfully, Ryan is sandwiched in the middle of siblings Luke and Kate, both fierce and loving cheerleaders and helpers to Ryan. Jessica is the founder of The We Are Brave Together organization, a supportive community for moms of children with disabilities and all unique needs, which has grown into an international community of over 4200 moms. She has helped launch over 25 support groups all over the United States, and in New Zealand and Australia, in the last five years. She is the host of the Brave Together Podcast. Things you'll learn from this episode  Why community is a critical foundation for healing, resilience, and feeling less alone as a caregiver How distinguishing between caregiving and motherhood can help parents better understand their experience How We Are Brave Together creates connection through circles, retreats, and shared storytelling Why bravery often shows up in small, everyday moments rather than big, visible acts How Jessica's work, including Suddenly Brave Together, reflects and validates the lived experience of caregivers Why systemic challenges can leave caregivers isolated—and how taking small, practical steps can help them find support now Resources mentioned  We Are Brave Together Brave Together Podcast Becoming Brave Together: Heroic, Extraordinary Caregiving Stories from Mothers Hidden in Plain Sight by Jessica Patay Suddenly Brave Together: Letters to Caregiving Moms in a Defining Moment of Their Lives by Jessica Patay We Are Brave Together Facebook Group Demystifying Disability: What to Know, What to Say, and How to be an Ally by Emily Ladau Emily Ladau on Demystifying Disability: What to Know, What to Say, and How to be an Ally (Tilt Parenting Podcast) Kelley Coleman on Everything No One Tells You About Parenting a Disabled Child (Tilt Parenting Podcast) Margaret Webb Parent Coaching Learn more about your ad choices.

“I didn't realize how alone I was.”For Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) awareness month, we are sharing a discussion with Jessica Patay, founder of We Are Braver Together. PWS requires 24/7 vigilance over a child whose appetite is unsatiable. This can become isolating, exhausting, and overwhelming to even the strongest moms. Jessica has turned her experience into a lifeline for other rare moms.We Are Brave Together emerged from the recognition that the girlfriend retreats she was hosting would be very helpful to moms who are caregivers. As these retreats have grown, she has helped many women feel like they belong. We Are Brave Together is built on the idea that human beings deserve to be seen, heard, understood, and validated. The retreats, the podcasts, the books all work to bring these moms together to share their stories.Her first book, Becoming Brave Together, was to share stories. The new book Suddenly Brave Together is a collection of letters from moms who have adult rare children to the new moms who have just gotten a diagnosis. Many hands and hearts reaching out across the universe saying, “You are not alone.”

When it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and the doors were locked where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.” After he said this, he showed them his hands and his side. Then the disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.” When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.” But Thomas (who was called the Twin), one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands and put my finger in the mark of the nails and my hand in his side, I will not believe.” A week later his disciples were again in the house, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were shut, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here and see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it in my side. Do not doubt but believe.” Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!” Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have come to believe.” Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of his disciples that are not written in this book. But these are written so that you may continue to believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that through believing you may have life in his name. John 20:19-31 NRSVUE Magandang hapon sa inyong lahat. Kamusta kayo? Napansin niyo ba na parang ang haba ng Good Friday? Kahit Easter na, parang hindi natin maramdaman. Napakatahimik ng buong linggo. Pagod ang mga tao, walang gaanong sasakyan sa labas, at dahil na rin siguro sa mahal ng gas kaya nananatili lang tayo sa loob. Parang kailan lang nung kumanta tayo ng “Happy Day” noong Easter Sunday, pero heto na naman tayo, bumalik na sa tahimik at matamlay nating mga buhay. Ito ang nais kong pag-usapan natin ngayon: kung paano natin matututunang mapansin ang mga “glimpses of Easter” o ang mga bakas ng pag-asa sa gitna ng ating pang-araw-araw na buhay na madalas nating binabalewala. Ngayon ay ikalawang linggo na natin sa panahon ng Easter, at sinusundan natin ang naging buhay ng mga alagad pagkatapos mamatay ni Jesus. Sa ating pagbasa ngayon, makikita natin silang nasa loob ng isang silid na nakakandado ang pinto dahil sa takot. Takot sila sa mga awtoridad na baka sila ay hulihin o usigin dahil kakamatay lang ni Jesus. Noong mga oras na iyon, iilan pa lamang ang nakakita sa libingan, kabilang sina Simon Pedro at Juan. Tanging kay Maria Magdalena pa lamang nagpapakita si Jesus, at siya ang unang inutusan ni Jesus na ipahayag ang balita ng muling pagkabuhay. Sa katunayan, maaari nating sabihin na ang unang itinalagang ministro ni Jesus ay isang babae. Isipin natin ang nararamdaman ng mga alagad habang nakakulong sila sa silid na iyon. Isipin niyo ang takot na kailangan niyo pang i-lock ang pinto dahil sa sobrang paranoia. Ginagawa nila ito para lang maramdaman ang kahit katiting na seguridad. Wala na si Jesus. Patay na ang kanilang pinuno at hindi nila alam kung ano ang mangyayari sa kanila. Siguro ay hindi pa nga sila tapos mag-luksa, pero heto na agad ang banta ng pag-uusig. At ang mga kinatatakutan nila ay hindi lang basta ordinaryong tao; sila ay mga makapangyarihan at may awtoridad. Nakita nila ang sinapit ng kanilang lider, at iniisip nila na baka sila na ang susunod. Napakasakit ng kawalang-pag-asang nararamdaman nila. Wala na silang aasahan. Ang taong sandigan nila, ang nagbibigay sa kanila ng lakas at suporta, ay wala na. Naalala ko tuloy noong nalaman nating magsasabbatical si Pastor Sean—grabe ang naging reaksyon natin. Marami ang nalungkot at nagtanong, “Paano na tayo?” Gayong alam naman nating babalik din siya. Paano pa kaya ang mga alagad na sa isip nila ay tuluyan nang nawala si Jesus?. Kahit sino naman ay gagawin ang ginawa nila. Tayo rin, madalas nating “ikandado ang ating mga pinto” sa panahon ng kawalang-pag-asa at kalungkutan. Ang pagkakandado ng pinto ay maaaring maging porma ng pag-isolate sa sarili, ang hindi pagpapakita sa iba, at ang pagkawala ng gana sa mga bagay-bagay. Minsan ay napapatanong tayo: “Para saan pa? Bakit ko pa kailangang magpatuloy kung parang bale-wala rin ang lahat?”. Ang takot na nararamdaman natin ay hindi lang basta personal; madalas ito ay bunsod ng mga sistemang mas malawak sa atin. Sa ating panahon, marami tayong kinatatakutang “awtoridad” at mga pangyayaring hindi natin kontrolado. Andiyan ang takot para sa ating bansa. Malapit na ang 2028, at may personal akong pangamba: muli ba tayong mabibigoy? Ma-iistuck na naman ba tayo sa isang gobyernong mas malala pa sa nararanasan natin ngayon? Minsan, nakakapagod nang lumabas at makisangkot kung parang walang nangyayari sa ating mga pagsisikap na humanap ng mga lider na may tunay na malasakit sa bayan. Maging sa mga simpleng bagay tulad ng pagbabayad ng pamasahe o pagpapagas, pinapaalalahanan tayo ng mga epekto ng mga desisyong ginagawa ng mga makapangyarihang lider sa mundo. Nakakalungkot isipin na ang mga “tantrums” at reckless na desisyon ng mga taong ito ay nagdudulot ng pasakit sa buhay nating mga ordinaryong tao. Ito ay isang trend sa buong mundo—mga lider na tila walang pakialam sa kapakanan ng kanilang nasasakupan. Bukod sa politika, isa pang bumabagabag sa akin ay ang tila pag-atras o pag-regress ng pagtingin ng lipunan sa mga kababaihan. Kaya naman ngayong taon, ang ating tema ay nakatutok sa queer at feminist theology. Ito ang dahilan kung bakit naramdaman namin ang pangangailangang ilabas ang aming unang single na “She Preached” noong nakaraang Easter. Nais nating ipaalala na sa kasaysayan ng ating pananampalataya, ang unang boses na nagpahayag ng pinakamahalagang balita—ang muling pagkabuhay—ay boses ng isang babae. Minsan, ang mundo ang mismong nagsasara ng pinto para sa atin. Ngunit tulad ng mga alagad, sa gitna ng ating pagtatago at takot, doon tayo kailangang puntahan ng pag-asa. Ang nakakalungkot na katotohanan ay hindi lamang iisang tao ang ganito; ito ay naging trend na sa buong mundo—mga lider na tila walang tunay na malasakit sa bayan at inuuna ang sariling “tantrums” kaysa sa kapakanan ng nakararami. Ang problema, kapag nag-tantrums sila, tayong mga ordinaryong tao ang pumapasan ng hirap at pasakit. Isa pa sa mga bagay na personal na bumabagabag sa akin ay kung paano tila umaatras o nag-re-regress ang pagtingin ng lipunan sa mga kababaihan. Ito ang dahilan kung bakit, bukod sa pagiging tema natin ang queer at feminist theology ngayong taon, naramdaman namin ang bigat at pangangailangang ilabas ang ating unang single na “She Preach” noong nakaraang Easter. Ito ang aming paraan ng paglaban sa mga mapanirang naratibo at sentimyento laban sa mga kababaihan. Sa kabila ng lahat ng mga “pinto” na isinasara sa atin ng mundo—maging ito man ay dahil sa takot, politika, o diskriminasyon—ang mensahe ng Easter ay nananatili. Tulad ng mga alagad na nakakulong sa silid, doon tayo kailangang puntahan ng muling nabuhay na Kristo. Ang hamon sa atin ngayong panahon ng Easter ay ang matutong kumilala sa mga “glimpses” o bakas ng pag-asa na madalas nating hindi napapansin sa gitna ng ating pagod at takot. Huwag nating hayaang manatiling nakakandado ang ating mga puso. Sa bawat pagkakataon na tayo ay nagmamalasakit, tumitindig para sa katotohanan, at kumikilala sa halaga ng bawat isa, doon natin nararanasan ang tunay na muling pagkabuhay. Salamat sa inyong pakikinig, at nawa’y maging inspirasyon ito sa inyong pagharap sa bagong linggo. Amen.

We are truly honored to speak with Kate Patay today.  Kate is a true leader in our industry who excels professionally and consistently gives back in meaningful ways. She is a media engagement strategist, event design and production expert, international speaker, mentor, connector, and travel enthusiast who serves as the Vice President of Global Engagement at Terramar, a DCM company, and chairwoman of the SEARCH Foundation. She is also a proud Swiftie! Stay tuned to hear about her remarkable journey and the insights she's gained along the way. Kate's Path Into the Events Industry Kate stumbled into the events world expecting to pursue a different career, but quickly realized that the work was in her blood. She began in food and beverage, moved through catering, hotels, and vendor roles, and ultimately launched her own firm, where she specialized in strategy and growth for small businesses and built a trusted global network. After collaborating with Terramar for years, the company invited her to join the team. The role aligned perfectly with her values, and three-and-a-half years later, she still feels deeply fulfilled, energized, and grateful to be part of a team that makes her smile every day. Joining Terramar Kate emphasizes the importance of values alignment, shared commitment to service, and honest conversations about expectations. For her, the biggest hurdle was navigating change management, but she believes that when change is rooted in doing the right thing, people ultimately get on board. Embracing Change  Growth only happens when we step beyond comfort and into uncertainty. Kate describes fear as a signal that something bigger is coming. She explains that transformation lives just beyond the point of discomfort. Breast Cancer Diagnosis and Journey Kate pushed for additional testing after receiving a clear mammogram. Doctors found two cancerous masses, leading to a double mastectomy and multiple follow-up surgeries due to complications, and a third surgery, which required traveling to a specialist with only 96 hours' notice. Thirteen days later, she stepped onto the IMEX stage to present. Her cancer is now clear, and she awaits final confirmation in January to officially begin her cancer-free countdown. Mindset, Support, and Self-Care Kate highlights the importance of putting yourself first. She encourages regular checkups, not dismissing symptoms, and making your health a priority. Support systems mattered a lot to her in her healing process, with colleagues who protected her privacy, stepped in to help, and ensured her work never suffered while she recovered. The SEARCH Foundation The SEARCH Foundation supports meeting and event professionals experiencing catastrophic illness, natural disasters, and other crises. The foundation began in 1997 during the AIDS epidemic and has expanded globally. Kate has served as board chair for six years and has recommitted for a third term because she sees so many lives transformed by this safety net. SEARCH is funded entirely by industry professionals, from monthly donors to students contributing just a few dollars.

Being a caregiver can be tough and sometimes lonely. For caregiving moms, having a sense of community and connection is essential. Whether it's sharing tips on managing hectic schedules or simply lending an empathetic ear, having a supportive network of fellow moms can make all the difference in navigating the challenges of motherhood. In this episode of Parenting Impossible, Annette Hines sits down with Jessica Patay, founder of We Are Brave Together. Inspired by her journey as a special needs mom, Jessica established the nonprofit in 2017 to create a safe, judgment-free space where caregiving moms can connect and support one another, addressing the exhaustion and isolation they often face. In this conversation, Jessica discusses the power of building supportive communities for those navigating the unique challenges of raising children with special needs, as explored in her anthology, Becoming Brave Together. Jessica reminds us that no mother should face their caregiving journey alone. In this episode, you will hear: How caregivers can prioritize their mental health effectively. Why community is essential for supporting caregiving moms. What makes building connections so vital in the world of caregiving. How advocacy for caregivers and raising awareness about their struggles help combat stigma.

Jessica Patay, a mom of 3 from Los Angeles, CA, isn't fearless. But she is brave. She's formed a support organization and completed an anthology of stories from moms like her, moms whose expectations of motherhood turned out differently from what they'd imagined. One of her sons has Prater-Willi syndrome, a genetic disorder that they've learned to not only live with, but that has spawned an incredible outreach of support and community. wearebravetogether.org Brave Together podcast the Becoming Brave Together book
