651TonyVery helpful info and guestsTammy and her guests have helped me quite a bit as a new fundraiser. The podcast not only addresses fundraising, but also leadership and team building. Great work Tammy!

SkyWriter60Engaging and informativeTammy is an engaging host whose thoughtful style, with a nice dose of humor, brings out the best in the industry leaders she talks with. Her content is consistently informative and valuable for all non-profit leaders, not just development officers. Tammy’s passion is evident and inspiring.

JazoniDont sleep on thisTammy is the real deal. A wonderful communicator with a heart for creating lasting change. I’ve followed her work for years and have learned so much. She was a guest on my podcast and upon launching that episode one of my clients texted me so excited by the insights she had learned from Tammy. You’ll find no shortage of wisdom you can keep in your back pocket in this podcast. Or your front pocket. Whichever pocket you use most frequently. 😃

AJinIndyFinally! A real development podcast!To my fellow fundraisers or those of you considering joining this rewarding work: this is a podcast that actually adds capacity to your work through meaningful conversations with relatable guests, expert advice from Tammy as the host AND (yes, there is more) tools and ideas that you can hit the ground running with. I’ve listened to nearly every podcast and there’s good reason for that: I can listen to this perfectly timed podcast while driving, working or walking. It’s also relatable because it’s filled with real life nuggets of insight and data that I can really use as a fundraiser, from guests that I feel like I’ve know my entire career. Do yourself a favor. Subscribe and start listening!

Jonathan MZLeading the Way in FundraisngAfter seeing Tammy present multiple times, I knew when she launched a podcast it would be good! She’s a fundraiser superstar who brings on other amazing people in the field. She also has a great way to engage her guests and ask questions that advance Philanthropy and equity in our sector.

WagonDaleRelevant, Riveting & ResourcefulGrowing up we were taught and followed the 3R’s now as professional adults we follow and learn from a new trio of R’s and Tammy Zonker and Fundraising Transformed. Every episode of the Intentional Fundraiser leaves me invigorated, energized, and ready to take on that never-ending task list. Additionally the quick fire questions and answers at the end have added several books to my resource library.

Reelroyreviews.comExceptional and accessibleTammy is an exceptional thought leader in this space. Accessible and pragmatic while inspiring. Highly recommend this listen AND working with her as a consultant IRL!
