Try Leca and just enough water for the roots to stay moist.
Any roots that are mushy need to be cut off. Then soak what’s left of the roots in a hydrogen peroxide solution for 5-10 minutes. It will pop bubble and fizz because it’s killing the bacteria. The solution is:

-1 part 3% hydrogen peroxide to
-3 parts water
@carola Monsteras prefer soil to being water grown. You would have much better results with soil. That is what I would do if it were my plant. Good Luck!πŸͺ΄πŸŒΊ
@WarrantedMelon should i cut all her existing roots?
