Continued monumental happiness and success on your road to discovery of your greatest self Necia Stallworth was born on November 24, 1983, in Chicago, Illinois. At birth, Necia entered the Child Welfare System and never had the opportunity to get to know her birth parents. While growing up on the Southside of Chicago, Necia was shifted from one foster care home to another. Often, she experienced many forms of abuse by those entrusted with her care. Necia says, "No child should ever have to suffer the abuse that she has had to suffer. As a child, she has endured enough trauma to last a lifetime."
