the rooted why
I've been managing
money since I was 7.
It Just Wasn't Mine.
ErikaBlair McGrew is a first-gen wealth builder who went from the kitchen table to Wall Street — and then chose to walk away from the system to teach people what the institutions never did.
As a former VP at Merrill Lynch, Finance Professor at Clark Atlanta University, and founder of both WealthMore and Young WallStreet, she built the Road to a Million — not as a destination, but as a declaration that wealth is a life skill, and every woman deserves to learn it.
