Key Takeaways from Ryan Pineda’s Journey:
Wealth Building Takes Dedication and Consistency, Not Magic
There’s no shortcut to building wealth. As Ryan explains, success isn’t a product of luck or a magical formula—it’s the result of hard work, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to your passion. By focusing on what drives you and dedicating yourself to learning, adapting, and overcoming obstacles, you can build the foundation for financial success. Ryan’s personal story highlights the importance of sticking with something, even when the results are slow to come. Over time, however, that consistent effort pays off, allowing you to turn your passions into something sustainable and scalable.
Health is the True Wealth
Ryan’s approach to health isn’t just about looking good—it’s about feeling your best and optimizing your body’s potential to thrive. He shares how his decision to start testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) transformed his energy levels, muscle growth, and overall vitality. But he’s quick to emphasize that TRT isn’t a quick fix—it’s only one piece of the puzzle.
According to Ryan, the key to lasting health is integrating supplements like TRT with a holistic approach that includes a balanced diet, regular exercise, and sufficient rest. True health optimization is about a comprehensive strategy that includes both physical and mental well-being. As Ryan wisely puts it, “TRT can help, but it won’t do the work for you.”
In fact, optimizing your health is a foundation that supports every other aspect of your life. If your health isn’t functioning at its best, it’s hard to enjoy your wealth, success, or relationships. Ryan’s story serves as a reminder that we cannot take our health for granted and that it’s worth investing in a holistic health strategy.
A Spiritual Foundation Can Lead to Better Decision-Making and Emotional Health
What truly sets Ryan apart is his strong spiritual foundation, which he credits for his emotional resilience and success. As an entrepreneur, Ryan’s ability to stay calm under pressure, make decisions with clarity, and stay grounded comes from his deep faith. His spiritual practices give him a sense of direction and purpose that transcends material success.
Ryan shares that this faith provides him with a framework that guides his life decisions, not just in business but in every area of life. Whether or not you share Ryan’s religious beliefs, the principle of living by a set of core values and principles applies to anyone. When you have a deep sense of purpose and clarity in your life, everything else falls into place.
Incorporating a spiritual dimension into your life doesn’t necessarily mean adopting a particular religion. It’s about finding what resonates with you—whether it’s faith, mindfulness, or another form of connection that helps you stay grounded, focused, and emotionally resilient.
Serving Others Leads to True Fulfillment
Dr. Vuu and Ryan both agree that true fulfillment comes from service. While wealth and success are important, they don’t bring happiness if they’re not used to serve others. Ryan explains that when he shifted his focus from self-interest to helping others, his life became far more fulfilling.
Whether it’s mentoring others, supporting your community, or offering your services to those in need, serving others not only boosts mental health but also brings a sense of purpose. Ryan’s experience demonstrates that, as we focus more on adding value to others’ lives, our own lives become richer, more meaningful, and filled with purpose.
This focus on service also ties back to health optimization—when we live for something greater than ourselves, it motivates us to take better care of our bodies, minds, and emotions.
Practical Resources to Help You Build Wealth and Health
For those looking to take action, Ryan offers valuable resources. His Wealth Builder Academy teaches individuals how to build wealth through real estate investments, while the Business Builder Academy offers actionable strategies for creating a thriving business. These programs are designed to help entrepreneurs scale their businesses and set themselves up for long-term financial success.
Ryan’s work demonstrates that it’s not just about theory—it’s about practical, actionable steps that anyone can take. With a mix of tried-and-true principles and innovative strategies, these programs can help anyone get started on their path to success.

It’s not enough to chase wealth or health in isolation; true fulfillment comes when these aspects of life are aligned with your deeper purpose.
