Introducing Dating Expert Sabrina Zohar: You’re Not Confused, You’re Ignoring the Signs (THIS Mindset Shift Will End the “What If” Loop for Good) from On Purpose with Jay Shetty. Follow the show: On Purpose with Jay Shetty Why do we chase people who don’t choose us, confuse anxiety for attraction, and stay in relationships that leave us questioning our worth?  Today, Jay sits down with Sabrina Zohar, podcast host and one of the most influential voices in modern dating, to unpack the emotional patterns that quietly shape how we love. Drawing from her own healing journey and work with thousands of clients, Sabrina explains how our childhood experiences, nervous system responses, and unhealed wounds influence who we’re drawn to often without us realizing it. Together, Jay and Sabrina explore what emotional availability really looks like, why consistency matters more than intensity, and how boundaries aren’t about pushing people away but protecting your peace. They break down common dating traps, from overanalyzing texts to mistaking butterflies for chemistry, and reveal why self-advocacy is one of the most important relationship skills we’re never taught. Through practical insights and deeply personal stories, Sabrina shows why asking for what you need isn’t “too much,” and why love should feel safe, not confusing. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Stop Chasing People Who Don’t Choose You How to Date Without Abandoning Yourself How to Set Boundaries Without Fear of Losing Someone How to Recognize Emotional Availability Early How to Break the Cycle of Situationships How to Ask for What You Need Without Feeling “Too Much” How to Stop Confusing Intensity for Intimacy You don’t need to chase clarity, overperform for love, or silence your needs to be chosen. Real connection begins when you feel safe enough to be honest, brave enough to set boundaries, and grounded enough to walk away from what doesn’t honor you.

The offseason might be "quiet," but Formula 1 clearly didn't get the memo. We're officially halfway through the break and there's already plenty to unpack — fresh livery launches hitting the grid, the Barcelona shakedown looming large, and early clues about who's sandbagging… and who absolutely isn't. We break down what teams are really looking for in Barcelona, why these early runs matter more than fans think, and what signals to watch before testing even begins. Plus: Lewis Hamilton gets a new race engineer at Ferrari — what does that mean for his adaptation and Ferrari's 2026 mindset? Livery season is here — who nailed it, who missed, and who's already playing the hype game. And the big question everyone's whispering about… is Christian Horner actually making a return, or is this just peak paddock chaos? We're back, we're fired up, and the road to lights out in 2026 has officially begun. 👉 Follow us on Instagram @formula_america 👉 Subscribe and follow on YouTube for full episodes, clips, and breakdowns 👉 If you love F1 with an American edge — you're in the right place 🇺🇸🏎️ Let's go.

In this off-season mega recap, we break down everything that's exploded across Formula 1 since the checkered flag fell earlier this month. From Helmut Marko's stunning exit from Red Bull to the controversies, power struggles, and political fallout left in his wake — this episode dives straight into the deep end of the paddock drama. We also tackle the 2026 engine war, where multiple teams are formally raising complaints against Red Bull and Mercedes, accusing them of exploiting a potential loophole to squeeze extra power out of their future power units. Is it innovation? Is it rule-bending? Or is this the first shot fired in the next great F1 arms race?

The desert lights were bright, but the drama? Not so much. Still, history was made in Abu Dhabi as Lando Norris clinched his FIRST World Championship, but not without having to earn it in the end! Meanwhile, Max Verstappen delivered an absolutely flawless weekend — pole position, dominant race pace, zero mistakes. The guy led almost the entire Grand Prix… but came up two tiny points short of a fifth straight title. And considering he clawed his way back from a 104-point deficit, that alone is insane. We also broke down Ferrari's late-season spark, with Charles Leclerc suddenly finding enough pace to nearly blow up Lando's title hopes all on his own. Plus, Yuki Tsunoda's comical — and chaotic — attempt to play wingman by slowing Lando down… along with the highly questionable penalty the stewards slapped on him afterward, and MORE!  

Buckle up America, because THIS. IS. IT!!! The final race of the 2025 Formula 1 season and we've got an ALL-OUT STREET FIGHT for the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP. Three drivers. One crown. Max Verstappen hunting for his 5th straight title, a run that would tie Michael freakin' Schumacher… VS. Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, the McLaren duo coming in HOT, hungry, and absolutely ready to rip the throne out of Max's hands. This is the heavyweight bout we've been waiting for all season. 🔥🏆 But the drama doesn't stop there… We dive into the shocker of the week: Yuki Tsunoda OUT for 2025 — and suddenly Isack Hadjar is in the big seat while Arvid Lindblad gets the call-up to Racing Bulls.  Then we roll into our bold predictions, controversies, championship math, who needs a miracle, who's about to choke, and who's about to rise like a blistering sun over the desert skies of Abu Dhabi.  This is the FINAL SHOWDOWN. The fireworks. The send-off. The moment the whole season was built for. 🎙️ Tune in, fire it up, and ride with us into the season finale.

Strap in, America—because the Qatar Grand Prix was supposed to be a snoozefest… until McLaren woke up and chose chaos. An early safety car dropped in, the entire field dove into the pits, and McLaren said, "Nah, we're good." Spoiler: They were not good. By refusing to pit, they handed Max Verstappen the Golden Ticket to cruise straight to victory. Oscar Piastri? He drove like an absolute superhero—one of the best races of his career—but strategy roulette meant P2 was all he could salvage. And now? We roll into the FINAL race with three drivers separated by just 16 points. This championship is going FULL American Gladiators in the finale and we are here for it. 🇺🇸⚔️ Meanwhile, Ferrari continues to emotionally pulverize their drivers. Carlos Sainz snagged his second podium of the year, and secured P5 in the constructors for Williams!

The Formula: America squad is BACK and fired up for one of the biggest weekends of the entire season. Qatar isn't just another stop on the calendar — this one could decide the championship. After that wild double DSQ in Vegas, Lando Norris rolls into Lusail with just a 24-point cushion over both Max Verstappen and Oscar Piastri… yes, you heard that right: a three-way title chase with two rivals tied behind him. And Qatar is serving up maximum chaos potential: 🔥 A Sprint Race AND a Grand Prix — a mountain of points on the table. 🔥 McLaren may be forced to run the car higher after the Vegas ride-height drama. 🔥 Hot track, brutal tire wear, and strategy that could flip the championship on its head. This weekend? Lando could lock down the whole damn thing… —or— We could leave Qatar with all three drivers neck-and-neck heading into the final race. Buckle up, America. It's about to get rowdy.   Don't miss this one. Hit FOLLOW, smash that SUBSCRIBE, and share the show with your F1 crew. Help us push Formula: America to the front of the grid — one episode at a time.  

Buckle up — we just survived a wild, chaotic, Vegas-level Grand Prix. Qualifying came in like a monsoon, and Lewis Hamilton shocked the world by putting his Ferrari dead last on pure pace — the first time in his entire career.  Then the race dropped the hammer on lap 1: Gabriel Bortoleto went kamikaze into Turn 1, taking out Lance Stroll and triggering carnage in the pack.  But if you thought that was wild — Kimi Antonelli just laughed in the face of strategy. He pitted early for hard tires, then ran nearly the entire race (48 laps!) on that same set, telling his tires in the cockpit: "Please, just hang on." His grit (plus McLaren's post-race mess) landed him on the podium.  The bombshell of the night? Both McLarens disqualified. Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri were stripped of their results after post-race checks found their skid planks wore below the minimum thickness.  That move shakes the championship: Max and Oscar are now tied on points, with Lando's lead cut to just 24 points — heading into the penultimate race in Qatar, everything is back on the table.

Ferrari is burning hot, and John Elkann just threw gasoline on the fire. After a disastrous Brazilian GP, he publicly called out Leclerc and Hamilton: "Talk less, focus on driving." But what was he really hoping to achieve? Is this tough-love leadership… or buyers remorse for bringing Hamilton into the chaos? On Formula: America, we break down: 🔥 The Brazilian GP meltdown — mistakes, misfortune, and the car that everyone knows is holding Ferrari back. 🏎️ Elkann calling out the drivers with the largest and most passionate fanbases in F1 — and insisting the problem isn't the car. (We all know it is.) 📉 What this means for Ferrari's season, their image, and their internal dynamics moving forward. 🎯 The big question: was Elkann justified, or is this a masterclass in misfired messaging — and what does he actually hope to gain from putting his stars on blast? We dig into the fallout, the fan reaction, and the real story behind the headlines. Ferrari fans, buckle up — this one's going to get spicy.
