How Gentefied’s Julissa Calderon Manifested the Acting Career She Always Dreamed Of

Julissa Calderon needs no introduction. You may think the Afro-Latina actress rise to stardom began after her viral videos on BuzzFeed’s "Pero Like" and her most recent Netflix series, "Gentefied," but her career really began much earlier acting Off Broadway. In 2020, Variety named Julissa 'A Latinx Star to Watch' and they were not wrong. She co-hosts a Netflix sketch comedy talk show “Go Off” on YouTube and even launched her first product as an entrepreneur, the "Manifest That Sh*t" journal after literally manifesting her entire career.  We talked about how comparing yourself to other women is completely useless, how letting your inner child guide you can help you throughout your journey and the success mindset that lands her all the gigs: working “10,000 hours.”
