Description: In this episode of The InPowered Life Podcast, Rudi Riekstins speaks with Ryan Stewman, CEO and founder of Apex, entrepreneur, and author of 11 books. Ryan shares his powerful journey from a troubled past—including multiple arrests and setbacks—to becoming a highly successful business leader. He reveals the mindset shifts, strategies, and financial principles that helped him break free from limitations and create lasting success.Key Takeaways: Resilience is built through overcoming setbacks, not avoiding them. The G-Code framework (Gratitude, Genetics, Goals, Group) helps maintain focus and beat complacency. Money should move—saving alone won’t create wealth. The "force of average" keeps people stuck in mediocrity; overcoming it requires intentional focus. Giving away 10% of your income fosters abundance and a healthy money mindset. Building wealth isn’t just about income—it’s about investing wisely and keeping money flowing. Quotes: "The world is designed to keep you average. Your job is to fight back and push forward." – Ryan Stewman"Success isn’t about how much money you make—it’s about what you do with your life and the impact you create." – Rudi RiekstinsVisit our website: https://www.rudiriekstins.comFollow along at: https://www.instagram.com/the.inpowered.life.podcast/Stream on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@rudiriekstinsRyan Stewman Links:Website: https://ryanstewman.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hardcorecloser/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/realryanstewmanLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanstewman/Twitter: https://x.com/ryanstewmanYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/ryanstewman Chapters:[00:00] Introduction[02:15] Ryan Stewman’s Background & Early Struggles[06:30] Turning Life Around & Becoming a Millionaire[12:45] Facing Setbacks & Losing Everything Again[18:45] Why Most People Stay Stuck in Life[27:00] The G-Code: The Four Keys to Success[35:30] The Force of Average & How to Beat It[40:20] The 21 Unbreakable Rules of Money[50:10] Why Giving Away 10% of Your Income Creates Wealth[55:10] Where to Find Ryan Stewman & Final Thoughts
