Our Story
Rooted in community. Built on collaboration. Here to help your vision grow.
For more than six years, June and Mimi have worked closely together, each bringing different strengths, experiences, and perspectives to the table. Over time, we realized that the things we were best at individually could become something even more powerful together.
June is a career strategist and recruiter who helps professionals find clarity, build their brand, and create their next opportunity.
She brings together career strategy, talent expertise, personal branding, and relationship-building to help people recognize their value, communicate it with confidence, and take meaningful steps forward.
Together, June and Mimi saw an opportunity to bring their strengths together—connecting people, purpose, and the businesses built to support them.
That vision became Isla Raiz.
Mimi is a Business Architect, creative operator, and entrepreneur who helps turn big ideas into businesses that work.
With years of experience supporting founders, coaches, and online businesses, she brings together strategy, systems, creative execution, and digital operations to turn vision into action.

Inspired by the Sari-Sari Store *
The inspiration behind Isla Raiz comes from something deeply familiar to us: the Filipino sari-sari store.
A sari-sari store is more than a neighborhood shop. It's a place where people come together. You walk in with what you need, find a little bit of everything, ask questions, share what's going on, and often leave with more than what you came for.
We wanted Isla Raiz to carry that same spirit.
A place where you can bring your ideas, ambitions, questions, and big vision—and find the people, strategy, and support to help you move them forward.
You may have the idea, the passion, and the potential—but sometimes you need the right strategy, structure, resources, and support to help that seed take root and grow.
That's where we come in.
Isla Raiz brings strategy and execution together under one roof, supporting both business owners and career professionals through the different seasons of growth.
Whether you need help figuring out what's next, creating the strategy to get there, building your personal brand, or simply getting the work done—we're here to help.
You bring the vision. We help plant the seeds, build the foundation, and nurture the growth.
And just like the sari-sari stores that inspired us, we're building Isla Raiz around something we value deeply in our Filipino culture: community, resourcefulness, relationships, and the belief that we don't have to build alone.
