Oct 16, 2026Or listen on Spotify.
At 25, Sabrina Zohar sent a man she barely knew 173 unanswered text messages from a friend's bathroom floor. Years later, she realized she was never in love with him. She was in love with being chosen.
In this episode, Jeff sits down with Sabrina Zohar, relationship coach, host of The Sabrina Zohar Show, and author of the new book Why Am I Like This?, to trace how childhood wiring shows up in who we date, how we fight, and why healthy love can feel boring at first.
- How anxious, avoidant, and disorganized attachment styles form, and why they're more fluid than social media suggests
- Repetition compulsion and why you keep dating the same type of person
- Why chemistry doesn't mean compatibility, and why money, kids, and shared life goals matter more
- A word-for-word script for talking to your partner about a trigger
- Why green flags can feel uncomfortable, and how corrective experiences change what feels safe
This episode is for anyone who keeps repeating the same relationship pattern and wants to understand where it comes from. Find Sabrina's new book, Why Am I Like This?, at sabrinazohar.com/book.
