Nelita Villezon: “My superpower is that I am different and I love that.” | So Candid

Nelita Villezon joins So Jannelle to discuss the complexities of navigating her identity as a Black-Filipino woman. Growing up in a time when being mixed-race wasn’t common, Nelita shares the challenges of feeling “stuck in the middle” and being told she didn’t look like the prototype for either of her cultures. From her early days in North Carolina to finding her footing in California, she explains how she eventually stopped seeking acceptance from others and started leaning into her unique heritage as her greatest strength.
