Send us Fan MailI wish someone had warned me about this after betrayal.Not about cheaters. Not about red flags. Not about whether to stay or leave. But about what betrayal was going to reveal about me.In this episode of The Dimple Bindra Show, we go beyond the surface of betrayal and into something much deeper:The moment you realize you may have been betraying yourself long before anyone else did.This is not about blame. This is about power.Because the most painful part of betrayal is not just what someone else did — it's recognizing how often you ignored your own voice, your intuition, your needs… just to keep things stable.In this episode, Dimple explores: • How self-betrayal begins long before external betrayal • The subtle ways women override their intuition and truth • Why ignoring discomfort disconnects you from yourself • The difference between awareness and self-blame • How to rebuild self-trust after betrayalAnd most importantly, the shift that changes everything:This moment is not asking you to focus on them. It's asking you to come back to yourself.You'll walk away with three powerful internal declarations: • I will no longer ignore my body • I will trust discomfort as information • I will not silence my truth to keep the peaceThis episode is for you if: • You've ever doubted your intuition after betrayal • You ignored red flags and are now questioning yourself • You're ready to rebuild self-trust without self-blameHere's the truth: Your betrayal didn't happen because you weren't enough. It happened because you were disconnected from yourself.And this is where everything changes.Follow Dimple Bindra here!✨ Not sure why you keep choosing pain over peace? Take the free WHY YOU GOT BETRAYED QUIZ and uncover the pattern you didn't even know was holding you back.If you can't eat, can't sleep, and keep replaying the betrayal in your head, this book was written for this exact moment.

Hey, Alex here, just got back from the sunny Shoreline Theater in Mountain view, so let me catch you up! This week was definitely Google heavy, we are covering Google's IO conference for the third year in a row, and today we have a special guest, Logan Kilpatrick, is joining to discuss the announced Gemini 3.5 Flash, Google Omni model, and the new Managed Agents offerings. Plus, this week, for the first time, OpenAI announced that AI solved a Math problem that humans couldn't solve for 80 years, Cursor is showing off Composer 2.5 which is partly trained on XAI data, Karpathy joins Anthropic and much more! Let's dive in! P.S - We've announced our upcoming hackathon, Weavehacks-4, June 6-7, I'll be there, we're expecting the seats to run out very soon so register nowThursdAI - We'd love to have your subscription, and if you're already subscribed, please hit that bell on YT to never miss an episode!Google I/O 2026 - Google goes agentic everywhereI went to cover Google I/O for the third year in a row, shoutout to the DeepMind team for inviting ThursdAI again, and folks, this one felt different.Last year, Google I/O was still very model-centric. This year, the story was not “here is another benchmark chart.” The story was: Google is putting Gemini into everything, and the agentic layer is becoming the product layer. Search, Gemini app, Android, Workspace, YouTube, AI Studio, Cloud, Antigravity, Flow, managed agents, smart glasses, all of it is now orbiting around one pretty clear strategy: Gemini is the intelligence, Antigravity is the agent harness, Google's products are the distribution. I saw many reactions that were milquetoast, as in, “we expected more” and those seem to dominate the X feed. But I think the distribution is the part that many folks on X are missing. Yes, we can argue about Gemini 3.5 Flash pricing. Yes, we can argue whether “Flash” still means what Flash used to mean. But when Google says the Gemini app itself has 900 million monthly active users, before even counting Search, Gmail, YouTube, Docs, Drive, Android, and the rest of the Google surface area, that's massive! OpenAI ChatGPT is supposedly stagnated at ~900M, I don't remember them crossing a 1B. Meanwhile Google is gaining traction. And they just updated all those folks with a new model!Wolfram said it really well on the show: his mother is not sitting there reading model cards. She just uses her Pixel, voice unlocks Gemini, asks for help, and suddenly the default intelligence available to her goes up. Antigravity 2.0 - the agent harness takes center stageThe biggest strategic signal from Google I/O for me was Antigravity.Remember, Antigravity was an IDE that came from the Windsurf acquisition saga. Part of the Windsurf team went to Google, part went to Cognition, and now Google is very clearly putting Antigravity in the middle of its agentic future. And I mean very clearly. Sundar mentioned it. Demis mentioned it. Varun Mohan the co-founder was on stage immediately after them! If you've ever watched a Google I/O keynote, you know how carefully every minute is allocated. Google has YouTube, Search, Gmail, Android, Cloud, Ads, Workspace, and a thousand VP-level products that could be on stage. The fact that Antigravity was that prominent should tell you everything.Logan Kilpatrick joined us and framed this in a way I loved: Gemini became the through-line across Google products, and now the Antigravity agent harness is becoming the through-line for agentic experiences.The new Antigravity 2.0 is a complete overhaul, showing only an agentic interface (which was previously just a separate window called Agent Manager) and separating the IDE layer completely into its own app and showing a Codex like agent-first interface, which got a few folks furious. This move may be weird to some folks, but if you follow along where everyone's going, this seems to be the way of the future, coding is no longer about lines of code, it's about managing fleets of agents. The new Gemini 3.5 absolutely shines inside the new Antigravity, the model was trained with this harness in mind, and is currently offered at an incredible speed (12x), so I'm definitely going to try it! Gemini 3.5 Flash - fast, determined, and maybe not the old “Flash”The most debated model release of the week was Gemini 3.5 Flash.Some folks saw the pricing and token usage and immediately went “this is not Flash.” I get that reaction. Flash used to mean cheap, fast, lightweight chat model. But Logan's framing on the show was important: Flash is now being built for the agentic era.In a chat era, you optimize for one user message and one model answer. In an agentic era, the real token volume is in tool loops, intermediate reasoning, retries, file reads, web searches, code execution, and self-correction. That's a different product profile.Wolfram already ran Gemini 3.5 Flash through WolfBench, and the results were fascinating. With the Hermes agent harness, Gemini 3.5 Flash hit an 87% ceiling on Terminal Bench 2.0, meaning across runs it could solve more of the benchmark than even GPT-5.5 extra high in that setup. The variance was higher with the simpler Terminus harness, but with a real agent harness, the model looked much stronger.That tracks with what Nisten saw in his “Martian railgun from Olympus Mons” test. Gemini 3.5 Flash went extremely detailed, almost too determined, kept correcting itself, overcorrecting itself, and built a whole game-like simulation. Logan laughed and basically said: yeah, this model is very determined, possibly an overcorrection from the “Gemini is lazy” feedback. It also tracks with the mismatch in other benchmarks, in some, Gemini 3.5 flash shines (like the above Apex-agents from AA) and in some, it doesn't match the other frontiers. In my tests, it was definitely over-eager to use a million and a half tool calls, read tons of files, to just help me review this draft inside antigravity. It's like a super eager robotic golden retriever! Gemini Omni - Nano Banana for video, but actually more than thatThe biggest update from last year IO was Veo 3! This year, the biggest wow factor was also visual, but it wasn't VEO 4, it was a new model that is multimodal, trained end-to-end they call Omni. Google is calling this their first “create anything from anything” model, and the first version, Gemini Omni Flash, starts with conversational video editing. The easy description is: Nano Banana for video. You upload or create a video, then talk to it. Change this character. Replace this person. Add an object. Make this scene claymation. Keep the scene, but change the environment.I played with it live and showed a few examples. I asked for a claymation explainer of protein folding, then gave it my face and asked it to replace the character with me. It did it. I uploaded pictures of Sonia, my cat, and it generated a talking cat video with the right kind of cat teeth, which is weirdly important because so many pet generations accidentally add human teeth and become nightmare fuel.The failure modes are still there. I asked it to make Sonia a Russian-speaking female cat, and it only partly switched languages and didn't really change the voice. Audio upload support is also not fully productized yet, even though the underlying model is multimodal. But the direction is very clear.This is not just “Veo with a chat model glued on.” I asked Jeff Dean - Google's chief scientist about this at I/O, and he explained that Omni is trained end-to-end. The intelligence and the generative media capabilities are part of the same model family, not a hacky two-model pipeline. He also said the intelligence is around a recent Flash-level model, which is a big deal when you think about video editing as reasoning over physics, identity, scene continuity, and intent.A lot of people compared Omni to Seedance 2.0, and I think that's the wrong comparison. Seedance is amazing at cinematic generation (lkaregly due to lack of copyright concerns from Bytedance). Omni's unlock is iterative editing on real footage and coherent multi-turn creative control. Other Google IO 2026 releases I found notableThis was a concentrated effort of a huge company to insert AI into every product surface they have so of course I can't cover ALL of it here, but the most notable things for me were: * Gemini Spark - a new agentic experience from Google, to help you with tasks across Gmail, Drive and more. It should support skills, and is a de-facto OpenClaw/Hermes alternative from Google for regular folks. It's not “yet” live so we'll talk more about it when I can test it out* Managed Agents in the Gemini API - We chatted with Logan about this one, Google is re-imagining how agents are going to get built, and are offering 1 api call to spin up an agent in a full Linux env, with security and sandboxing in mind. I'll expand more on this in a next episode, as I recorded a complete conversation about this with Ali Çevic, a PM for Google APIs* AI overhaul of Google Search - AI Overviews will not expand into AI mode, and the iconic Google search box itself will change, for the first time in 25 years to include AI mode! * SynthID expantion and OpenAI collab - Google showed off that OpenAI is joining in marking all AI generate imagery and video with an invisible SynthID watermark. I think this is amazing and more companies should adopt this standard* AI Glasses! We got Google Glasses demos - Together with Warby Parker and Gentle Monster, Google finally showed off their answer to Meta Raybans/Oakleys. They look like regular glasses too, but can hear and talk to you, with the full power of Gemini multimodality. Available in the fall sometime! * Demis Hassabis “we're on the cusp of the singularity” closer - CEO and Co-Founder of DeepMind, Demis Hassabis, closed the show with his remarks about the positive future and that we are nearing this Singularity point after which the future is very uncertain. I found it to be very inspiring and closed our show with that clip as well! * Personally, I got to chat to: Demis Hassabis, have breakfast with Jeff Dean, ask Josh Woodward a bunch of questions, and pester about 20 other great folks on a live stream, and had a lot of fun! Huge thanks to the DeepMind folks, Lucie, Dimple, JD and many others for the continued belief in ThursdAI and invite me to cover this great event. OpenAI LLMs solve an 80yo math problem - Erdős Unit Distance ConjectureOutside of Google I/O, the biggest story of the week was OpenAI announcing that a general-purpose reasoning model made progress on the Erdős planar unit distance problem.This problem goes back to 1946. For nearly 80 years, mathematicians believed the best constructions looked roughly like square grids. OpenAI's model found a new family of constructions with a polynomial improvement, using algebraic number theory ideas that humans apparently had not explored in this context. The above is a representation of it! Important caveat: this does not fully solve every version of the asymptotic Erdős conjecture. Some mathematicians are pushing back on the framing, and fair enough. Precision matters. But even with the caveat, this is still a huge moment.The reason it matters is not that I personally understand the math. I absolutely do not. The reason it matters is that this was not a special-purpose IMO model fine-tuned only for math competitions. This was a general-purpose reasoning model exploring a real open problem, generating candidates, verifying them, and finding a path humans hadn't taken. Extrapolate this to other sciences, Physics for example? This means an amazing future. LDJ pointed out that mathematicians have been skeptical because there have been previous false alarms. But this one landed differently. When Fields Medalist-level mathematicians verify the proof, the discourse changes from “lol stochastic parrot” to “wait, what does this mean for my PhD?”My answer is: yes, still study math. Please study math. The mathematicians who use these tools will do much more than people who don't understand the domain. Same with software engineering. Senior engineers with Codex, Claude Code, Hermes, Antigravity, Cursor and other agents are becoming dramatically more effective because they can steer, evaluate, and recover the work.This being published a day after Demis's “foothills of the singularity” is a great conjecture. Cursor Composer 2.5 - Opus 4.7 performance model from Cursor, at 10x better efficiencyCursor dropped Composer 2.5, and folks, this is a serious release.Composer 2.5 is built on Moonshot's Kimi K2.5 base, like Composer 2, but Cursor scaled the post-training dramatically. They used 25x more synthetic tasks and introduced targeted textual feedback during RL rollouts, where the model gets hints inserted at the point of failure instead of only getting a noisy final reward.The benchmark story is strong: around 69.3 on Terminal Bench 2.0, basically neck and neck with Opus 4.7 in Cursor's chart, and strong results on SWE-bench multilingual and CursorBench. The pricing is the part that makes this especially interesting: $0.50 per million input tokens and $2.50 per million output tokens, with a faster variant at $3 / $15. That is much cheaper than the frontier models it is trying to replace for day-to-day coding work.Cursor engineers are reportedly dogfooding Composer 2.5 heavily and rarely switching away. That matters more to me than any single benchmark. If the people building Cursor can use it as a daily driver, that is a very real signal.The wild part is what comes next. Cursor is partnering with SpaceXAI to train a much larger model from scratch using 10x more compute on Colossus 2. Cursor has the workflow data. xAI has enormous compute. If this works, Cursor stops being just the IDE company and becomes a coding-model lab.We've been saying for months that coding agents are the path toward general agents. Anthropic has Claude Code. OpenAI has Codex. Google has Antigravity. xAI has Grok Build. Cursor has Composer. I'm looking forward to seeing how well it performs on our own benchmarks! Anthropic, xAI, Karpathy, and the compute warsThe compute story this week was bonkers.The SpaceX IPO filing reportedly revealed that Anthropic is paying SpaceXAI $1.25B per month for AI compute at the Memphis Colossus facility. Per month. That's about $15B a year, through May 2029, for access to more than 220,000 NVIDIA GPUs including H100s, H200s and GB200s.This is apparently inference compute for Claude Pro, Max and API users, not training. And it explains a lot of the recent quota changes. Anthropic doubled some Claude usage limits, and suddenly the product feels less constrained.Also, can we just acknowledge the comedy here? Elon Musk publicly called Anthropic “misanthropic,”, went off against every competitor to XAI, is now selling spare GPU time to Cursor and Anthropic? Who's next, OpenAI? The bigger point is that the AI capex story is no longer just NVIDIA. It's also whoever owns the data centers, power, cooling, networking, and GPU clusters. Compute is becoming the land under the AI economy.Also, Andrej Karpathy joined Anthropic. Karpathy could work anywhere. He co-founded OpenAI, led Tesla Autopilot vision, taught half the AI world how neural nets work, and now he's going back into frontier LLM R&D at Anthropic.Open source LLMs - Cohere, Qwen, NousOpen source had a strong week too.Cohere released Command A+, a 218B total parameter sparse MoE model with only 25B active parameters per token, under Apache 2.0. This is their first model that unifies reasoning, vision, multilingual, tool use and citations in one package.The hardware story is great: W4A4 quantization can run on 2 H100s or a single B200. Cohere says it supports 48 languages, 128K input context, 64K output, and gets big jumps over Command A Reasoning, including Tau-squared Bench Telecom from 37% to 85% and Terminal-Bench Hard from 3% to 25%.Cohere is one of those labs that doesn't always chase the loudest consumer hype, but they are very serious on enterprise and multilingual. Apache 2.0 makes this one especially useful.Alibaba also dropped Qwen 3.7-Max, positioned as an agentic frontier model. The headline from their testing is wild: 35 hours of continuous autonomous operation with more than 1,000 tool calls. They also showed it controlling a physical robot inside Alibaba offices and finding an umbrella after about 20 minutes of agent interaction.This digital-to-physical bridge is where things start feeling very real. An agent loop that can write code and use tools can also navigate physical tasks if you give it the right robotics stack.And our friends at Nous Research released Lighthouse Attention, a sparse attention method for long-context pretraining. At 512K context, they report a 17x faster forward+backward pass than standard attention on a single B200, and the recovered checkpoints actually beat dense-from-scratch final loss at the same token budget.The clever part is that the selection logic sits outside the attention kernel, so you still use regular FlashAttention on a gathered dense subsequence. No custom sparse kernel nonsense. If this holds up, this could matter a lot for long-context training.Tools and agentic engineering - X subscriptions, Grok Build, Codex MobileOne really practical tool update: Hermes and OpenClaw can now use your X subscription directly.This is more important than it sounds. You can connect your X Premium subscription and get access to semantic X search and Grok-related tooling without using sketchy browser automation or unofficial APIs that might get you banned. Wolfram already used this to have his agent go through his likes and bookmarks from the past week and send me news items for the show. That is exactly the kind of “small but real” agent workflow that becomes addictive.xAI also launched Grok Build, their agentic CLI coding tool, in early beta for SuperGrok Heavy subscribers. Early users are already running parallel Grok Build agents through tmux supervisors and using it for more than coding: fleet data triage, security patching, training label work, and general automation.The pricing being discussed is aggressive, around $1 per million input tokens and $2 per million output tokens for the API. The model version is grok-build-0.1, and folks have already wired it into Hermes with a 256K context window.And then there's Codex Mobile, which OpenAI shipped inside the ChatGPT mobile apps. This is one of those releases that sounds small until you start using it. You can control Codex sessions remotely from your phone, connected to your machine, and because Codex has native connectors to Gmail, Calendar and other surfaces, it sometimes feels faster and more reliable than local CLIs duct-taped to third-party integrations.I ported Wolfred into Codex with skills and everything, and I've been comparing the same tasks in Hermes and Codex. Codex is often faster, not necessarily because the model is always smarter, but because the connectors and harness are cleaner. Harness matters. We keep coming back to this.This Week's Buzz - W&B, CoreWeave, WolfBench and roboticsThis week in the Buzz, Wolfram walked us through a few things from the Weights & Biases / CoreWeave world.CoreWeave is a gold sponsor at ICRA 2026 in Vienna, the International Conference on Robotics and Automation. NVIDIA is also going big there with a keynote on generalist humanoid robots, 17 accepted papers and workshops around sim-to-real, robot foundation models, autonomous driving, manipulation, and physical AI.Wolfram will be there later in the week, after speaking at the AI Developer event in Cologne about WolfBench. If you're in Europe and into robotics or agent evals, find him.We also looked at WolfBench results for Gemini 3.5 Flash, which honestly became one of the more interesting empirical points of the episode. The model looks variable in simple harnesses, but very capable in better agent loops. That's the whole thesis of measuring model + harness together instead of pretending the model card tells the whole story.The water discourse, almonds, and data center realityWe also got into the data center water discourse, because this talking point is everywhere right now.There are real infrastructure questions around AI. Power, land, cooling, grid capacity, permitting, local impact, all of that matters. But the “AI is stealing drinking water” version of the argument is often wildly detached from scale.The stat I brought up on the show: California almonds use roughly 3 to 5.5 million acre-feet of water per year, multiple times more than all North American data centers combined in 2025. Nisten and LDJ added the important cooling nuance: many large data centers use closed-loop cooling, and evaporative cooling is not universal. Some data centers can avoid water use almost entirely, but at the cost of higher electricity usage.This doesn't mean “no concerns are valid.” It means if we're going to regulate or pause data centers, let's be honest about the actual tradeoffs. AI compute is becoming the substrate for medicine, robotics, science, logistics, software, education and every other productivity layer. We should build responsibly, but not based on viral fear math.Closing thoughts - foothills of the singularityDemis closed I/O saying we're in the foothills of the singularity, and I know how that lands when you write it down. But I was in the room, and after the keynote he told me something I haven't been able to shake: he thinks AI is going to be 10x as impactful as the Industrial Revolution, and 10x as fast. Basically 100x. This is the AlphaFold guy. Not someone loose with his words.Then look at the week. A general reasoner cracked an 80-year-old math problem. Cursor is training near-frontier coding models on a fraction of the big-lab budget. Anthropic is paying Elon $15B a year for inference. Karpathy left education to go back into pre-training. Google rolled out an intelligence uplift to a billion people who don't even know a model dropped.If you put that on a whiteboard in 2023, it reads like a sci-fi pitch.LDJ's mathematician friends are asking if they should keep doing their PhDs. My answer hasn't changed: yes, please keep going. The people who combine domain taste with these tools are going to ship more in 5 years than the previous generation did in 50. The tool doesn't replace the taste. It just removes the bottleneck.That's the whole reason ThursdAI exists. Not to hype every drop, not to dunk for engagement, but to give you a shot at being one of the people who knows what's happening, with the receipts.This week, a lot changed.See you next Thursday.TL;DR and Show Notes* Hosts and Guests* Alex Volkov - AI Evangelist at Weights & Biases / CoreWeave, @altryne* Co-hosts: @WolframRvnwlf, @nisten, @ldjconfirmed* Guest: Logan Kilpatrick, MTS at Google DeepMind / AI Studio, @OfficialLoganK* Google I/O 2026* Google went all-in on agents across Search, Gemini, Antigravity, Workspace, Android, Cloud and YouTube (I/O site, Alex thread)* Antigravity 2.0 became the central agentic coding harness across Google (Sundar, Google OS demo)* Gemini 3.5 Flash launched as a fast, determined workhorse model for agentic loops (Logan, Noam Shazeer, Jeff Dean)* Gemini 3.5 Flash is rolling out across the Gemini app, Search AI Mode, Gemini API, Google AI Studio, Antigravity and Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform (Koray Kavukcuoglu)* Google Search is getting new Gemini 3.5 Flash-powered agentic capabilities, including a new AI-powered Search box and background information agents (Sundar)* Gemini Spark was announced as a 24/7 personal AI agent that can proactively work across Google surfaces (News from Google)* Google teased Gemini-powered Android XR smart glasses with eyewear partners Gentle Monster and Warby Parker (Google, Alex live reaction)* Google AI Studio and the Gemini API got major agentic developer updates, including Managed Agents (Google AI Developers)* Vision & Video* Google DeepMind launched Gemini Omni, a “create anything from anything” multimodal model starting with conversational video editing (DeepMind, Google DeepMind on X)* Omni is available in the Gemini app, Google Flow and YouTube, with API support coming soon (Logan, Gemini App, Sundar)* Key distinction: Omni is not just text-to-video, it is an iterative multi-turn video editing model that combines Gemini intelligence, world knowledge, multimodal inputs and generative media (Google)* Big CO LLMs + APIs* OpenAI announced a general-purpose reasoning model made progress on the Erdős planar unit distance problem, challenging an 80-year-old mathematical belief (OpenAI, X)* Cursor launched Composer 2.5, built on Kimi K2.5, with Opus-class coding performance at much lower cost (Cursor blog, X)* Alibaba released Qwen 3.7-Max, an agentic frontier model with long autonomous runs and robotics demos (Qwen blog, X, robot demo)* Andrej Karpathy joined Anthropic to work on frontier LLM R&D (X)* SpaceX IPO filing revealed Anthropic is paying $1.25B/month for AI compute at the Memphis Colossus facility (Axios, Sawyer Merritt)* The jury in Musk v.

Send us Fan MailThis reaction after cheating feels right… but it's not.And it's one of the biggest reasons women get pulled back into the same cycle again.In this episode of The Dimple Bindra Show, we break down a pattern that feels like love, looks like remorse - but is actually deeply misleading:Love bombing after betrayal.After cheating, he suddenly becomes:Overly loving.Highly emotional.Apologetic in ways he never was before.And a part of you starts to believe: “This proves how much I mean to him.”But here's the truth: Intensity is not repair. Pain is not proof of change.In this episode, Dimple unpacks: • What love bombing actually is after betrayal • Why emotional intensity creates trauma bonds • How empathy gets used against you without you realizing it • Why you shift into caretaker instead of being supported • The difference between real accountability vs emotional performanceThis episode is for you if: • You were pulled back in by apologies that felt intense • You started focusing on his pain instead of your own healing • You felt guilty leaving because he “seemed” brokenHere's the shift: Love bombing doesn't answer the betrayal. It distracts you from it.Real change is quiet. Consistent. Unimpressive.If the apology is louder than the accountability… your body already knows the truth.Follow Dimple Bindra here!✨ Not sure why you keep choosing pain over peace?

Send us Fan MailThis is when staying becomes more dangerous than leaving and no one really warns women about this part.In this episode of The Dimple Bindra Show, we talk about a hard truth most women don't want to face after betrayal:Staying without safety is not love. It's exposure.After cheating, after lies, after betrayal — when you stay, something shifts.Not just in you. But in him.Because once someone crosses the line and there are no real consequences, they don't necessarily become honest…They become better at hiding.In this episode, Dimple breaks down: • Why staying can increase manipulation instead of repair • How betrayers adapt instead of changing • The hidden danger of “hope” when there is no real safety • How time becomes the biggest cost after betrayal • What it does to your nervous system to stay in an unsafe environmentThis episode is for you if: • You stayed after cheating hoping things would change • You feel like something is still “off” but can't explain it • You're constantly scanning, questioning, or bracing yourselfHere's the truth:Staying doesn't always make you safer.Sometimes, it delays the truth.And while you're waiting… your healing is on pause.Leaving is painful.But staying with someone who continues to lie is dangerous.The truth doesn't disappear.It waits.Follow Dimple Bindra here!✨ Not sure why you keep choosing pain over peace?

He says what he's supposed to say.So you think: “I should feel better by now… so why don't I?”In this episode of The Dimple Bindra Show, we unpack a truth most women aren't taught:Your body knows before your mind catches up.And when something still feels off..it's not because you're negative, unforgiving, or broken.It's because something hasn't actually changed.In this episode, Dimple breaks down: • Why words can sound right but still feel wrong • The difference between rehearsed responses vs real change • How your body detects patterns your mind is still processing • Why numbness, shutdown, or disconnection are protective responses • The hidden physical signs your body gives after betrayalThis episode is for you if: • You keep thinking “I should be okay by now” • You feel disconnected, numb, or shut down after betrayal • You've been blaming yourself for not “moving on”Here's the truth: Your mind listens to words.

What a show! WWe dive deep into the life of Shirley Temple Black, from her young life as a precocious little girl with a smile, to her mother's enrolling her in the Meglin Kiddies Dance School at the age of three, to her subsequent discovery a few months later, hiding behind the piano when Educational Pictures director Charles Lamont came to the school looking for talent. She at first joined the Baby Burlesks, a somewhat uncomfortable series in which toddlers, clad in costumes above the waist and diapers below recreated onscreen moments from more famous pictures...this led to many unclomfortable moments among viewers. But her performance in Stand Up and Cheer! impressed the directors at Fox who signed her to a simple contract and proceeded to make movies like The Littlest Rebel, Curly Top, Dimples, amd The Littlest Princess where she played an adorable moppet with an unforgettable smile who became the single most bankable star of the 1930's. Not one performer in that era made as much as this singing and tap-dancing little starlet. When she aged out of that kind of role both Fox and MGM tried to repackage heer and she made a handful of films that ranged from watchable to deeply forgettable. MGM released her from her contract and she married her first husband, who was unable to handle the pressure of BEING her husband leading to his drinking and their divorce. Eventually she would marry Charles Alden Black who would be her husband till his death in 2004. She would also become a politician and candidate for congress, a stateswoman and a diplomat during the 70's and 80;s. She would move from this role to a quite life at home, only turning up occasionally in interviews or to collect an honor, though when she was diagnosed with Breast Cancer and eventually got a mastectomy she was very public with her diagnosis, treatment and an advocacy for testing early and frequently, Otherwise she lived a quiet life until she would eventually pass away in the early 2010's. She would be mourned on morning news programs across the country and we dive deep into her amazing life in this Women's History Month special episode.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.
In this episode of the Fund the People Podcast, listeners will gain practical insight into how philanthropy can evolve to meet today's interconnected crises—and what funders can do differently right now to support justice, sustainability, and nonprofit workers. Host Rusty Stahl is joined by nationally recognized philanthropic leader, lawyer, and author Dimple Abichandani, whose new book, A New Era of Philanthropy: Ten Practices to Transform Wealth into a More Just and Sustainable Future, offers a bold reimagining of philanthropy's purpose and practice.Together, Rusty and Dimple explore why so many funders are skeptical that philanthropy can rise to this moment, tracing those doubts back to the field's historical roots in Andrew Carnegie's “Gospel of Wealth” and the enduring legacy of Gilded Age thinking. They focus especially on the importance of investing in nonprofit people, with Dimple sharing concrete examples from her time as a foundation CEO—including "healing justice" grants that helped address burnout, trauma, and precarity in grantee organizations of General Service Foundation before and during the pandemic. The conversation closes with a compelling invitation to move beyond 'gilded philanthropy' toward 'true alchemy': transforming wealth through care, listening, and solidarity, so that communities can genuinely thrive.Gust bio: Dimple Abichandani is a nationally recognized philanthropic leader, writer, and lawyer, and author of a forthcoming book, A New Era of Philanthropy: Ten Practices to Transform Wealth Into a More Just Future, that offers fresh answers to the question of how philanthropy can meet this moment.Related episodes:How Funders Can Support Nonprofit Workers in the Age of Burnout, Part 3 – with Desiree Flores, Executive Director, General Service FoundationLinks to Resources:A New Era of Philanthropy book by Dimple AbichandaniDimple Abichandani websiteFor Philanthropy, This Actually Isn't 2016 All Over Again, Dimple Abichandani letter in The Chronicle of Philanthropy, November 2024To Ensure Nonprofit Wellbeing, Invest in Wages, Workloads and Working Conditions Rusty Stahl's guest post on Center for Effective Philanthropy blog, June 2024

Send us a textHello, 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 SummaryDimple 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.Key TakeawaysYour Soul's Word Is Your CompassIt reveals how you are meant to live and give.Overflow Changes EverythingWhen you are full, giving becomes clean and resentment disappears.Resentment Is InformationIt often points to where you are not honouring yourself.Clarity Comes From Self Check InAligned decisions require honesty with yourself first.Presence Is PowerfulYou can hold others with compassion without carrying their emotions.Thank you for joining me today. If this episode resonated with you, please leave a review or share it with someone who is ready to live with more alignment and ease. I always love hearing from you, so come and connect with me and share your reflections.Until next time, keep choosing yourself and stay true to your heart.

Send us a textHello, hello. I am Dimple Thakrar, and welcome back to Beyond the Words. Today, we are exploring the truth about masculine and feminine energies and how they shape long-term love. If you have ever felt out of sync with your partner or wondered why the spark faded even though the love remained, this episode will speak to you.I share a time when my husband and I slipped out of balance. I was pushing too much, sitting deep in my masculine, while he softened too much into his feminine. That mix dissolved our polarity. What brought us back was not forcing roles. It was each of us finding our true energetic centre before meeting again. Now, thirty years in, the work has evolved from repair to expansion.We will talk about how real relationships move between energies naturally. How you lead in your strengths, soften where you choose, and allow flow instead of rules. I will share why this creates ease, safety, and a deeper spark.Episode SummaryDimple reflects on a season in her marriage when polarity faded due to energetic imbalance. She describes how she and her husband restored it by returning to their authentic, energetic nature rather than assigning blame. Now, in a more mature stage of the relationship, both partners move between masculine and feminine in a way that feels natural and supportive.She explains how this flow allows each person to lead where they are strong and receive where they want support. The episode challenges the idea that women must stay in their feminine and men must stay in their masculine. Instead, Dimple shows how couples thrive when both partners honour their truth and free themselves from guilt and stereotypes.Key TakeawaysPolarity Begins With AuthenticityEach person must know their natural energetic centre.Flow Matters More Than RulesHealthy partnerships allow movement between energies.Lead Where You Are StrongStrengths create connection, not fixed roles.Both Energies Are PowerfulFeeling, leading, softening, and taking charge are all valid.Extraordinary Love Requires BalanceSafety grows when both partners feel free to be themselves.Thank you for joining me today. If this episode touched you, please leave a review or share it with someone ready for a deeper way of loving. I always love hearing from you, so connect with me on social media to share your thoughts. Until next time, keep growing and stay true to your heart.

Solar, Storage, and Nuclear: The Next Clean Tech Wave Surging AI demand is creating volatility and speed-to-power challenges, while grid delays push onsite generation forward. Our Clean Tech Symposium highlighted a major shift in data center power strategies, with the percentage of facilities using onsite gas potentially doubling in the short term. But, its role as bridge vs. temporary depends on economics: transmission and distribution (T&D) spend >$100B annually and pricing trends closer to $6/MMBtu. Solar-plus-storage remains highly cost-competitive with battery prices down 40-50%, reinforcing its position in future portfolios. Nuclear small modular reactors (SMRs) are progressing with faster timelines, though commercialization is years away and cost certainty remains low. Power availability is now shaping data center site selection, where Dimple sees solar + storage and nuclear as complementary long-term solutions.

Send us a textIn this episode, Dimple Thakrar sits down with Hector Marcel, President of Three Jewels in New York City, for a conversation on purpose, surrender and what it really means to listen when life whispers.Hector shares the unbelievable story of how accidentally walking into “the wrong party” in Manhattan at 20 years old, meeting Tibetan monks and being handed a dream that told him “you're home,” became the doorway to his life's work. That single moment led to Three Jewels, a nonprofit spiritual community now serving more than 60,000 visits a year, teaching meditation, agency of mind and inner freedom to a new generation.This conversation is personal. Dimple reveals how Hector became chosen family for her eldest daughter Maya when she moved alone to New York at 17. Instead of numbing heartbreak with distraction, Maya found Three Jewels, learned to work with her mind, and reclaimed her own worth. Hector speaks about that season, the responsibility of holding a young soul through pain, and why our twenties are the moment we decide who we are going to be in this world.Together, Dimple and Hector explore why most of us spend our lives running from discomfort instead of listening to it, how resistance is not the enemy but the training ground, and why the “pull” you feel that quiet knowing that makes no logical sense is almost always the doorway to service, legacy and love.This episode is an invitation to trust that you are being moved for a reason. You are not random. You are required.Key Takeaways:Agency of MindYou think you're in control of your mind until you try to hold one breath of attention. Real freedom begins when you develop the ability to direct your own mind instead of being dragged by impulse.The Whisper is InstructionLife is always signalling. A dream, a pull, a “go here,” a “call them.” Most people ignore it because it is inconvenient or not logical. Hector followed it even when it made no sense, and it changed not only his life but thousands of others.Resistance is Part of the TrainingWanting to run, argue, talk yourself out of the thing that is normal. The work is not to never feel resistance. The work is learning to stay present inside it and choose anyway.You Are Needed Exactly As You AreYour way of loving, healing, teaching, creating, and leading the world actually needs that specific expression. Your job is not to be more like someone else. Your job is to become more you.We Are Not SeparateHector describes humanity as an interconnected net of jewels, each facet reflecting the others. Your healing is not private. Your courage gives someone else permission to live.Thank you so much for being here with us today. If this conversation touched you, share it with someone who is in a season of surrender or feels “on the edge of something” but scared to leap. Your share might be the whisper they have been waiting for.Dimple Thakrar Resource Links:Website: https://dimpleglobal.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dimple.thakrarInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dimple.amore/Three Jewels NYC: https://threejewels.org/Hector Marcel: https://www.instagram.com/wakeupist/ Dimple Thakrar Resource Links: Website: https://dimpleglobal.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dimple.thakrarInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dimplethakrar/
