Why Communication Falls Apart

(and What You Can Do About It)


Discussion Description:

Ever had a conversation go sideways and not know why? You’re not alone.


Miscommunication is everywhere: in our relationships, our workplaces, our play, and even in the way we try to listen. Come join Pleasure Seekers for an engaging and insightful presentation from a professional people-watcher and lifelong communicator and a trauma and sex therapist as we explore why communication goes wrong, how to recognize the signs before it blows up, and what you can actually do to course-correct.
We’ll dig into the unspoken scripts, body language cues, emotional misfires, and the classic traps we all fall into (yes, even the really smart and self-aware ones). You’ll walk away with practical tools, a deeper understanding of your own patterns, and maybe even a laugh or two about the weird things humans do when they try to connect.
There will be time for Q&A, real-world examples, and optional audience participation. Whether you're a seasoned communicator or just trying not to panic-text your partner, there’s something here for you. Bring your curiosity, your questions, and that one example you still replay in the shower. We’ve got you.
Let’s talk about why talking is so damn hard and how we can get better at it.


Your Panel: 

Thunderbunny (he/him) has been consensually non monogamous for over a decade, and a kinkster at least that long. He's a student of human behavior, including his own, and dabbles in areas related to communication and what that actually means, as well as accountability, autonomy, and why they're important enough to actually define. 


Caroline (she/her) is a therapist in Colorado specializing in trauma therapy and sex therapy. Her specialties include working with the kink community and the ENM community, as well as sexual trauma and religious trauma. Caroline is passionate about destigmatizing the taboo, filling in the gaps, and meeting people where they are in their journey. With her clients, she incorporates humor, authenticity and nerdiness. Caroline is also an independent researcher and has ongoing research in the demographics of cuckqueans, the hinge partner in polyamory, grieving the life you're living as a cancer patient, and addressing erotic countertransference.
