Live Workshop
This is not a typical AI workshop.
It is not focused on tools first. It does not begin with prompts, platforms, or shortcuts.
Instead, it starts with something deeper: how you think about your work, your purpose, and the way you move projects forward in the real world.
AI is part of this process—but it is not the center of it. It is a tool that becomes powerful only when it is used with clarity, alignment, and intention.
What follows is a step-by-step framework. Each session builds on the one before it. The goal is not just to understand funding—but to approach it in a way that is clear, grounded, and actionable.
Each step is simple—but not always easy.
If you move through them in order, you will not just leave with ideas. You will leave with something you can actually use.
This is not just about funding.
It is about learning how to think clearly, act deliberately, and move meaningful work forward in a changing world.
Welcome to the workshop dashboard. Instead of using slides, we will move through this page together. Each link opens a short thought piece with discussion points. We will read, pause, discuss, and then move to the next section.
When prompted, click the current session link. We will read the short piece together, discuss the questions, and then return to this dashboard for the next step. The goal is not just to learn about AI, but to practice using it as a thoughtful ally in clarifying and funding meaningful work.
During the workshop, we will also look at a live example of how AI can help move from a broad funding question to a specific grant opportunity and a sample grant application.
