In this episode, Ryan and Ari Rastegar discuss:

  • How hitting rock bottom gave Ari clarity on what truly matters in business and life
  • The critical role of sleep, health, and discipline in sustainable leadership
  • Shifting from an ego-driven mindset to one centered on legacy and long-term value
  • Strategies for scaling without sacrificing authenticity and relationships


Key Takeaways:

  • True wealth begins with health. Ari believes that discipline in sleep, nutrition, and fitness directly fuels focus, clarity, and leadership performance.
  • After losing everything early in his career, Ari realized that failure isn’t the opposite of success—it’s the foundation that teaches humility, resilience, and adaptability.
  • Growth starts when you stop chasing validation and start prioritizing purpose. 
  • Even at the highest levels of business, emotional intelligence and presence are non-negotiable. Leaders who stay self-aware build trust and longevity in both partnerships and personal life.
  • Ari’s success philosophy blends spirituality, science, and structure—proving that mindset mastery and consistent daily habits are just as vital as financial acumen.
