Pearl J. says, "I eventually reached out to GW after months of searching for the appropriate grants for our nonprofit. I spent two hours with their consultant, who thoroughly examined our activities and mission. They helped us choose which grant possibilities to pursue first and unearthed options I never would have discovered on my own. Two grants have been obtained six months later. It was well worth the initial consultation price."See more

Daniel B. says, "Some investments help your business. Others elevate your entire vision. Working with Brian Kurian and his team has done exactly that for me. Brian first helped me with bringing my book to life through ghostwriting and developmental editing, but the value of our work together quickly expanded far beyond the book. He is also helping me create and scale my speaking business, private membership community, and coaching business with a level of strategy, clarity, and support that has been nothing short of exceptional. What makes Brian different is that he does not operate transactionally. He is deeply invested in the success of the people he serves. He listens, he challenges you to think bigger, and he brings real wisdom to the table. He and his team have overdelivered every step of the way. I also want to specifically recognize Mark and Jhazline for the tremendous help they have been providing with my book. Their contributions have been significant, and I truly appreciate the care and professionalism they brought to the project. To put it simply, I would have paid twice as much for this level of support. On a personal level, Brian has become a trusted friend and an outstanding mentor. That says a lot. It is rare to find someone who can combine heart, excellence, business acumen, and creative talent at this level. I am so confident in Brian and the work he does that I will also be joining him for a special in-person VIP Day workshop at the end of April 2026. If you are considering working with Brian Kurian and his team, my advice is simple: do it. They are the real deal."See more

Angel P. says, "My experience with Krista was transformative to say the least. From the very first round of the developmental edit, I knew she wasn’t just refining my poems—she was driving me to dive to deeper depths, adding insight and imagery to my poems. With every comment she made, she posed the most thought provoking questions—urging me to brighten my imagery and sharpen the message of each work. My poetry is such an intimate and personal piece of my experience as a Black Woman. Entrusting an editor outside of that experience was not a decision that I took lightly, but truly Krista handled my work with the utmost dignity, respect, care, and cultural sensitivity. Every nuance of my Black experience from my AAVE speaking style to my heritage was handled with honor. This is what makes Krista truly special. She never tried to change or correct my work to fit any specific aesthetic, my words were never judged or diminished. She amplified my voice. She’s knowledgeable, talented and professional. She was always right on time, and at times, even ahead of schedule because she’s a diligent editor and passionate about her clients’ work. I will be working with her again! She’s the perfect collaborator; she’s honest, fair, passionate, and an expert in her line of business."See more
