Phyllis Utley, known as Lady Sunshine, is a bridge between legacy and leadership.

She brings warmth, strategy, and powerful ancestral insight to every room—whether it's a city hall, college campus, or community summit.

With a gift for storytelling and a mission grounded in restoration, her talks awaken institutions to the unseen resources around them—buried funding, untapped partnerships, and forgotten histories with real-world impact.

Phyllis doesn’t just speak inspiration—she delivers activation. From historically Black burial grounds to student retention frameworks, from grant-ready collaborations to land acknowledgment practices, her message turns disconnection into direction.

For schools, governments, and organizations ready to reconnect with purpose and unlock transformational resources, Lady Sunshine shines a light on what’s been there all along—waiting to be honored, organized, and funded.
