Artificial Intelligence Use Statement

How We’re Using AI (and How We’re Not)

At Life-Changing Workshops, we’re in the business of presence—real-time, heart-open, body-grounded presence. It’s what we teach, what we practice, and what we return to again and again—because we believe presence is what truly transforms.

When it comes to using tools like AI, we start with the same questions we ask in our workshops: Does this serve connection? Does this deepen self-awareness? Does it help us show up more fully as ourselves?


We currently use AI in a limited and intentional way—primarily to support our creative and communication processes. That might mean using AI to help shape an email, organize a teaching insight, brainstorm ideas, or distill an idea that’s already alive in us. Every piece still begins with a human moment—something real, something felt—but AI can help give it form, flow, and clarity. It’s a collaboration that allows us to focus more on what we most care about: meaning, resonance, and relationship.


Using AI well isn’t just about asking a question and hoping for a good answer. It takes real thoughtfulness to train AI for a specific purpose. That means carefully crafting the context it works from—teaching it the tone, values, and audience it’s meant to speak to. It involves writing clear instructions, sharing examples, refining outputs, and correcting misfires along the way. In our case, we’ve trained AI to reflect the heart of this work: presence, humility, emotional resonance, and real-time insight. It’s not a shortcut. It’s a creative process that requires discernment, iteration, and a deep connection to what matters most.

We do not use AI to create course content, design curriculum, or generate teaching materials for our programs. The heart of our work—our teachings, frameworks, group processes, and facilitation practices—are entirely human-made and grounded in lived experience, deep presence, and relational intelligence.

Our book, Designing & Leading Life-Changing Workshops, was created before the advent of generative AI and is entirely human-generated. It’s the result of decades of in-person experience—real workshops, real people, real breakthroughs. Like our trainings, the book is rooted in lived moments, embodied presence, and the kind of wisdom that only emerges through showing up again and again, in real time, with others.


We’re choosing to be transparent about our use of AI because integrity matters, especially in a field like ours, where trust is the foundation and heart is the currency. If you're ever wondering how something was created, just ask. We’re always happy to share.
