Lady Candace Graham is a leader, builder, and voice for women stepping into purpose. A native of Conway, Arkansas, and graduate of the University of Arkansas, she serves as Strategic Planning Officer at Mount Pleasant Baptist Church—where vision becomes strategy and strategy becomes impact.

Affectionately known as “First,” she leads with strength, grace, and intentionality, helping to shape both culture and community within the church.

As the CEO and founder of Lady Like, she is cultivating a space for emerging First Ladies to grow, connect, and lead with confidence; creating environments of support, service, and sisterhood that extend far beyond the church walls.

A proud member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., Lady Candace is passionate about youth, leadership, and helping people advocate for themselves. Her mission is clear: to help others find their voice—and have the courage to use it.
