LIFE COACH, AUTHOR, SPEAKER

“I have had the privilege of knowing Gerald Washington both in business and as a friend. He is the up and coming Berry Gordy and Quincy Jones of this generation.

His understanding of building a successful empire and a healthy life is essential. Learning to recover from losing everything during the recession and even having to work at Taco Bell, yet discovering his path and purpose as the empire builder I have grown to know and love, is a comeback story every entrepreneur should read.” 

DEVON FRANKLIN

PRODUCER & NEW YORK TIMES BEST-SELLING AUTHOR

"Get ready to be challenged in the best way. My good friend Gerald Washington, knows business. His book will unleash the empire builder in you. The success principles he breaks down here are essential for every business owner to master. This book is an investment in your future."

JEFF JOHNSON

 CEO of JIJ COMMUNICATIONS

“I only take advice from people who have walked what hey talk. Gerald Washington has used a lifetime of business and life lessons to help you push past survial to create a legacy and say no to a carrer so you can say yes to an Empire. He has done it in his own life and can help you too”
