About Paul William Barrett Sr.:
Paul William Barrett Sr. is a serial entrepreneur, pastor, and visionary dedicated to creating generational wealth for underserved communities.

A graduate of Boston University and CEOSPACE International, Paul is the CEO of Barrett Enterprises and founder of Fortune Seven, a nonprofit focused on empowering minority entrepreneurs. Through initiatives like The Odyssey Series, a mentorship program for small business owners, and his development of a "meaning intelligence" mobile app, Paul equips individuals with the tools to build multi-million dollar enterprises and find purpose in their financial decisions. His leadership is centered on eradicating economic inequality and creating lasting legacies.

- Paul's commitment to sharing his knowledge and experiences with the next generation, whether through his son or the Odyssey Series program, demonstrates his understanding of the transformative impact of mentorship.
"We are commanded to leave generational wealth to our children, and people don't do that.” — Paul William Barrett Sr.
