About the Author

Charlotte Satcher-Walker is from Southwest Louisiana.  She is reared from humble beginnings which she believes is why she views humility and humanity an important part of her life.  She watched her dad help people who were stranded on the highways, take strangers in and feed them and sometimes allow them to stay until they were well able to move forward in their lives.  Many times her mother didn’t agree with this, but her dad would always say he just had a feeling that these were good people he would be helping out and everything would be just fine.

Charlotte grew up in the church working in different capacities in her youth and adolescent years.  Some of those are youth secretary, Sunday School secretary, Jr. Choir Director, Assistant Sunday school teacher among participation in other auxiliaries in her church on different committees in her community.  One of her favorites she remembers being a part of as a youth is the infamous DeRidder Community Choir.  She still works faithfully in her church as the Sr./Mass Choir director and serves as a deaconess.  She often finds herself telling of God’s love in her travels to people she comes in contact with.

She is considered a motivational and spiritual speaker.  She works in her community on an educational level to change behaviors through the parish schools, faith-based and professional levels with youth and families to combat underage drinking and prescription and other illicit drug abuse.

Charlotte obtained her elementary and high school education in the Beauregard Parish School System.  She received her associates, bachelors, and master degrees from Kaplan Online University.  She has begun working to continue her education in obtaining her PhD in Criminal Justice where she’s received 42 doctoral level credits.

Charlotte has held several capacities but says the one that shaped her was the decision to begin working in the private prison system.  She used her years of working in the prison system to let those know who were incarcerated that there is hope in Christ when they didn’t believe there was any hope, but at the same time she enforced and followed the rules and regulations as that was what you are supposed to do in the criminal justice field.  She has worked as a Mental Health Specialist/Professional, and a substitute school teacher.  She believes she was destined to be in positions to help people from all walks of life, no matter their age. 

Charlotte’s ultimate goal as she states is to ‘simply be a light that others can see Christ in her, and be a voice of sharing that everyone can know that God is who He says He is and no matter what situation someone is going through; change will come if you only believe in God first, and in yourself.  Love God and love who YOU ARE IN HIM!
