Danette Headshot.jpg

Hello. I’m Danette Halloran, founder of The Empowered Person – AI™ and The Empowered Grant Writer - AI.™ I know what it’s like to feel stretched thin trying to do meaningful work that matters.

When I discovered AI, especially tools like ChatGPT, I didn’t just save time; I reclaimed it. That shift gave me the freedom to serve others more deeply, reconnect with my purpose, and live with greater intention. 

 

Now, I coach others to do the same. When AI takes care of the busywork, you’re free to focus on what truly matters: people, purpose, and presence.

Empowerment through AI isn’t just about productivity; it’s about learning to ask better questions, make smarter decisions, and grow personally and professionally.

Through my workshops and coaching,

I’ll give you the tools to:

  • Think critically.

  • Solve problems creatively.

  • Express yourself with clarity.

  • Customize GPTs

  • Prompt Like a Pro 

Let’s unlock the power of AI together—so you can live and lead with intention, equipped to think for yourself, take action with confidence, and rely less on others.

The Empowered Person™

The Empowered Person™ is dedicated to helping individuals, nonprofits, and businesses unlock their full potential through AI's confident and ethical use, especially ChatGPT. Learn how to optimize GPTs, prompt like a pro, and reclaim your time, all while boosting your capacity for critical thinking, strategic planning, and lifelong learning.

When you learn to prompt like a pro, you gain more than productivity. You gain clarity, confidence, and creativity. You enhance your ability to think critically, problem-solve effectively, receive real-time tutoring, and communicate with impact.

Empowerment through AI isn’t about replacing people - it’s about equipping them to ask better questions, make informed decisions, and lead with intention.

At The Empowered Person, I believe that when you master AI, you don’t just keep up with the world - you shape it with purpose and heart.

 

Work smarter. Live fuller. Reclaim your time with purpose.
