Have you ever found yourself obsessing over someone new, even if you barely know them? In this powerful episode, I sit down with dating coach and podcast host Sabrina Zohar to explore how ADHD intersects with dating, emotional regulation, and the often misunderstood phenomenon of limerence. Sabrina is known for her no-BS approach to relationships and brings her signature humor, authenticity, and wisdom to a candid conversation about how ADHD affects attachment, communication, and dating dynamics.

We dive into what it means to feel “too much,” how rejection sensitivity shows up in dating, and why being in a secure relationship doesn’t mean everything is perfect. Sabrina shares her personal experiences, including her late ADHD diagnosis, how she navigates a relationship with a partner who has OCD, and the somatic tools that help her regulate emotionally.

Sabrina Zohar is a dynamic entrepreneur and dating coach renowned for her transformative podcast, The Sabrina Zohar Show. With a clear, no-nonsense approach to relationship advice, Sabrina's podcast has resonated globally, ranking in the top 0.05% of all podcasts. Each episode features practical tips backed by board-certified and licensed psychologists, aimed at helping listeners improve their dating lives by fostering self-worth and personal growth.
