Making Sense of Mixed Messages

About This Event

Making Sense of Mixed Messages is a 30-minute session designed to support AuDHD and neurodivergent adults in navigating confusing, contradictory, or indirect communication with more clarity and confidence.


What To Expect

  • Brief learning on one specific mixed-message pattern and how it typically shows up in everyday interactions

  • Explore why these dynamics create doubt, confusion, or cognitive overload

  • Interactive Q&A and practice with simple scripts for real conversations that align with how you think and communicate

This Is for You If

  • You often leave conversations feeling confused, doubting yourself, or replaying what was said

  • You notice mixed signals like indirect requests, emotional pressure, or shifting expectations

  • You are AuDHD or neurodivergent and want communication tools that match how you actually think and process

What You’ll Walk Away With

  • Greater awareness of when you are carrying more emotional or conversational load than intended

  • Clearer ways to respond without overexplaining or shutting down

  • More confidence in choosing when and how to engage without pressure


TOPIC: When "You Can Talk to Me Anytime" Doesn't Mean Anytime

Mixed signals occur when availability is stated while responses suggest strain, delay, or irritation. This session focuses on building skills to interpret and respond to these moments without overreaching or self-censoring.

  • How to notice patterns between offered availability and actual responsiveness

  • How to identify what level of access is realistically being offered

  • How to clarify communication windows and expectations without apologizing

Join the conversation every Tuesday at 6pm CST.
