The Fundraiser's AI Starter Suite

If Sunday nights feel like the slow countdown to another heavy Monday, you’re not alone. I know that tightening in your chest — the mental list of donor follow-ups, board reports, events that need funding, and the quiet weight of a mission too big for one person to carry.

For years, I fought through it with a brave face and a tired heart. I thought if I just worked harder, smiled brighter, or slept less, maybe we’d finally turn a corner. But the load didn’t get lighter — it grew heavier.

That’s why in this episode, I share the truth about how I found a different rhythm. Not hustle. Not hype. A steadier way to begin the week — with AI as a supportive assistant, not a replacement for your voice.

I’ll tell you about the false starts (like the first time I asked for a “persuasive” appeal and got a manipulative draft I’d never send), and what shifted when I realized AI is not a test with one right answer. It’s a conversation you can shape. Warmer. Shorter. One true detail. Suddenly, the pressure dropped, and the drafts started sounding like me.

Along the way, we’ll sit with the real hesitations:
– “I don’t have time.”
– “Will it sound robotic?”
– “Is donor data safe?”
– “Am I already behind?”

And I’ll show you how small, safe steps can pay you back by Friday.

By the end, you’ll see what a first week can look like when you set clear guardrails, send thank-yous that sound like you, and outline a board report without losing your morning. Not a grand reinvention — just a quieter confidence you can feel in your calendar and in your body.

If you’ve been carrying the weight alone, this episode is for you.
