What does it take to move to a new country, earn an MBA, become a CFP®, and launch a wealth management firm—all in under four years? In this conversation, Imade Iyamu shares how she built Arusha Wealth after immigrating to the United States, and why her mission is focused on helping immigrants and cross-border clients navigate some of the most complex financial systems in the world. We explore the real challenges behind building financial stability in a new country, from credit systems and taxes to visas, estates, and retirement planning across borders. Imade also breaks down how she went from law to finance, earned her CFP®, and launched an RIA while designing a business model rooted in education, community, and long-term trust. This episode offers practical insight into niche firm-building and what it really means to start a business while still learning the system yourself.
