About The House of Magsarili

EMBRACE TODAY, BUILD TOMORROW Generosa's childhood was marked by abuse and chronic illness. "To paint the picture... I learned to roll a joint by the age of six... the standard growing up was: graduate high school and not get pregnant." As a latch-key kid with TV as a babysitter, she clung to fictional characters for identity. "Being mixed-raced, I struggled with my identity. I had my 'Flashdance' phase, pixie haircut 'Ghost' look, and 'Pretty Woman' era." Generosa rose above her circumstances: she was the first in her family to graduate high school and attend college, ending harmful generational cycles. She sought healing & growth. She choose to forgive. In 2016, as a newly licensed real estate agent, Generosa made a transformative purchase. "My first purchase after closing my first transaction was a nice coat. I had never spent that much money on myself—it made me nauseous to 'Confirm Order.' But as soon as I put the coat on, my hesitation was replaced with elation. It was the first piece of self-expression that made me see a glimmer of me...the me I yearned to see. My coat started a process of release; while embracing me in warmth, it served as a catalyst to embrace myself...the unique traits I had been taught to despise were valuable strengths." This revelation became the impetus for The House of Magsarili: to share the joy of embracing yourself while pursuing healing and growth. No matter where you are in your journey, you are always welcome at The House of Magsarili.
