AI-Powered Prep: Human-Centered Conversations

AI is already in your donor meetings.

I’ve been hearing from so many fundraisers who feel torn.

You want to use AI to save time, but you do not want donors to feel like they are talking to a robot instead of a real person.

In my latest episode of The Intentional Fundraiser, I share how I use AI as a quiet research assistant, not a replacement for human connection. 🤝

I walk through a real world workflow for:

1. Turning public information into a one page prep brief 📝
2. Using AI to practice tough donor questions before you walk in the room 🎯
3. Setting simple guardrails so your team stays ethical and confident 🔒

In my experience, when you get this right, you walk into meetings feeling calmer, more prepared, and more present with your donors.

Here is the question I am sitting with:

How do you want AI to support your donor work without changing who you are as a fundraiser.
