The Story of Narra Collective

Our Roots
Embracing Our Heritage

Built on Strength. Rooted in Community.

The name “Narra” was never just about a tree. In the Philippines, the Narra tree is known for its strength—but it’s also where people gather. It’s where stories are shared, where neighbors look out for one another, where community takes shape.

That feeling stuck with me. And when it came time to build this space, I knew I wanted to carry that with me. Narra is about more than work—it’s about creating a place where we show up for each other, where connections feel real, and where community is the foundation.

Community and Support
Building Connections

The heart of Narra Collective is its people—founders, creatives, parents, and small business champions who understand the hustle and the heart it takes to build something that matters.

This isn’t just about shared desks or wifi. It’s about shared experiences. At Narra, members find real connection, honest conversation, and the kind of support that doesn’t feel transactional. Through curated events, skill-building workshops, and storytelling spaces, we create opportunities to learn, grow, and show up for each other—in business and in life.

Because building something meaningful feels a little lighter when you’re not doing it alone.
