About us

At The Future Change Makers, we are dedicated to creating Brave Spaces where transformation happens at the intersection of reflection, connection, and action. Co-founded by D. Lamar and Sunia, we bring a wealth of experience in leadership development, spiritual guidance, and community organizing.

We believe that real change begins with the courage to connect — with ourselves, with others, and with the world around us. Our mission is to support individuals and organizations in navigating uncertainty with clarity and confidence by building spaces where human connection and shared purpose drive growth and success.
