Why Giving From Empty Never Works

Hello, hello. I am Dimple Thakrar, and welcome back to Beyond the Words.

Today, we are exploring something beautifully simple and deeply transformative. Your soul’s word. The one word that lives at the centre of who you are and shows you how to live, give, and love in alignment.

In this episode, I invite you to slow down and go inward. To ask your soul a quiet question: What is my word? It might be love, kindness, joy, generosity, or service. There is no thinking required. The first word that arrives is usually the truth.

I share how living from your soul’s word changes everything, especially the way you give to others. When you fill yourself first, when you live from overflow rather than obligation, your relationships soften. Resentment fades. You stop over giving, over explaining, and over stretching yourself thin.

We explore why giving from a half empty place leads to frustration and disappointment, and how other people’s reactions often mirror where we are not honouring ourselves. This episode is an invitation to take responsibility for your fullness without guilt.

I also share a simple decision making tool that brings clarity and calm. A three step check in that helps you move through life with ease rather than confusion. And we talk about the power of presence. How to hold space for someone you love without absorbing their emotions or losing yourself in the process.

This is a conversation about self respect, emotional maturity, and living in alignment with your truth.

Episode Summary

Dimple explores the concept of the soul’s word and how it acts as an inner compass for aligned living. She explains the difference between giving from overflow and giving from obligation, and how resentment is often a sign of self abandonment.

She introduces a simple decision making framework based on three questions that must all be answered with a yes. By learning to ask what is good for you first, decisions become clearer and relationships become cleaner.

The episode also touches on the art of holding space through presence. Dimple shares how staying grounded allows others to process emotions safely without you taking them on as your own.
