In "We Should All Be Millionaires," Rachel Rodgers demolishes financial barriers facing women, especially women of color earning just 62 cents to a white man's dollar. What if rejecting societal money myths could transform your finances - and society itself?
Rachel Rodgers is the bestselling author of We Should All Be Millionaires: A Woman’s Guide to Earning More, Building Wealth, and Gaining Economic Power. She is a self-made millionaire, attorney-turned-entrepreneur, and advocate for financial empowerment.
Her book is a Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller with over 200,000 copies sold. It provides actionable strategies for women, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ individuals to overcome systemic barriers and build generational wealth.
As CEO of Hello Seven, Rodgers founded the Millionaire Summit conference and “We Should All Be Millionaires: The Club,” helping thousands launch businesses and achieve financial freedom. A frequent guest on Good Morning America and The Drew Barrymore Show, she blends personal experience as a Black working mother with blunt advice on dismantling racism and misogyny in finance.

Rodgers’ Hello Seven Foundation addresses Black maternal healthcare disparities, cementing her holistic approach to economic justice. The book was named one of Audible’s top audiobooks of the year and has become a modern classic in personal finance literature.
We Should All Be Millionaires is a guide for women, particularly those from marginalized groups, to dismantle financial barriers, rewrite money narratives, and build wealth through mindset shifts, strategic decisions, and actionable systems. Rodgers combines personal stories, societal critiques, and step-by-step plans to help readers increase income, set million-dollar boundaries, and create generational wealth.
This book targets women, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ individuals seeking financial freedom despite systemic obstacles. It’s ideal for entrepreneurs, underearners, or anyone tired of frugality-focused advice. Rodgers’ blunt, empowering approach resonates with those ready to confront internalized limiting beliefs and external inequities to build seven-figure businesses.
Yes—it’s a Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller with over 200,000 copies sold. Readers praise its unapologetic focus on systemic inequities, actionable frameworks (like million-dollar decisions), and relatable anecdotes. It’s particularly valuable for those seeking a wealth-building roadmap that prioritizes earning over penny-pinching.
Key concepts include:
These are choices aligning with abundance, like hiring help, raising prices, or investing in quality tools. Contrasted with “broke-ass decisions” (e.g., undercharging, overworking), they reflect a shift from scarcity to strategic growth. Rodgers emphasizes: “What gets measured gets managed” when scaling income.
Rodgers critiques laws and societal norms historically denying wealth-building opportunities to women and people of color. She provides workarounds, like building a “million-dollar squad” for support and leveraging marketing strategies to bypass systemic barriers. The book rejects bootstrap rhetoric, acknowledging systemic hurdles while offering pragmatic solutions.
As a Black woman, former attorney, and self-made millionaire, Rodgers blends legal insights, entrepreneurial experience, and candid storytelling. She addresses intersectional challenges—like racism and misogyny in finance—while sharing proven tactics from building her multi-million-dollar coaching company, Hello Seven.
Some critics argue the book oversimplifies wealth-building for those in extreme poverty or debt. Others note its focus on entrepreneurship may not apply to traditional employment. However, Rodgers counters by providing debt-management strategies and emphasizing incremental progress, regardless of starting point.
Unlike frugality-focused books, We Should All Be Millionaires prioritizes earning over cutting expenses. It uniquely addresses systemic barriers facing marginalized groups, rejecting “pull yourself up by bootstraps” narratives. Rodgers also integrates mindset work with tactical business growth strategies rarely combined in personal finance literature.
With rising income inequality and AI disrupting traditional jobs, Rodgers’ emphasis on entrepreneurship and multiple income streams remains timely. The 2024 workbook edition addresses post-pandemic economic shifts, helping readers adapt strategies for gig economy dominance and digital business models.

The wealth gap isn't just alarming - it's a crisis of power. White women earn 79 cents and Black women only 62 cents to a white man's dollar. Women pay more for debt, invest less, and face greater poverty in retirement. Despite being better investors and leaders, only a tiny fraction of women-owned businesses reach seven figures. Why? Because our society has systematically kept women from building wealth. Money equals power - the power to leave toxic situations, advocate for causes you care about, and create meaningful change. Rachel Rodgers knows this firsthand. She transformed from a law clerk earning $41,000 with a 480 credit score into the founder of a multi-million-dollar business. Her journey taught her that conventional financial advice for women is deeply flawed. While we're told to stop buying lattes and cut expenses, Rodgers advocates expanding income rather than contracting expenses. When women have money, miracles happen. Research shows women invest 90% of their income back into families and communities, compared to only 35% for men. That's why NGOs rebuilding after disasters invest in women first. Look at philanthropists like Beyonce, Sara Blakely, and Mackenzie Scott - their wealth creates change that wouldn't be possible without serious money. Six figures isn't enough anymore - households earning $100,000 often have only 2% disposable income after basic expenses. The goal should be at least $1 million in assets or generating $1 million annually. This isn't an impossible dream - it's achievable through building a business, investing in real estate, or trading stocks, regardless of your circumstances or background.
