Award-winning author, speaker, trainer and coach, Carlotta Taylor transcended from a victim in foster care, to a survivor, advocate, and sounding board for the foster care system. After many years of flinching due to child abuse, psychological abuse, sexual abuse and trauma, Taylor is now a sought-after speaker and author of the bestselling book, “No More Flinching – 5 Steps to Overcoming Adversity,” who declares a No More Flinching mindset everywhere she goes.

Taylor earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Social Services, a Master's in Science and Leadership from Belhaven University, and speaking certifications and training with The John Maxwell Team. Taylor, also a Veteran, held a 15-year law enforcement career before being called to higher heights. She brings a unique perspective gained from her personal foster care experience coupled with her employment as a child protection detective and robbery homicide detective, working hand in hand with child advocacy centers, counselors, social workers, police officers, detectives and more. In other words, Taylor has lived in both worlds.

Organizations that hire Taylor because of her powerful capability to connect with her audiences and assist in rebirthing their “why” see significant enthusiastic growth in the work force, which helps impact the world one organization at a time.

When not speaking or training, Taylor can be found creating different looks with make-up, or searching for her next true love, a French Bulldog.
