Welcome back to Rumbling Facts Podcast, where uncomfortable truths meet real growth, and where critical thinking rules over comfort zones. In this powerful episode, your host Sam (aka DjRetsam) dives deep with a guest who embodies modern hustle in the entertainment world — Ryan Galway, the founder and CEO of Sleepless LYFE, artist manager, tour manager, podcast host, and multi-venture entrepreneur redefining what it means to build a brand with passion and purpose. Ryan’s story bridges the worlds of music, travel, and business — and it’s all about taking risks, staying authentic, and turning dreams into a sustainable legacy.

From his early days as a musician to managing high-energy tours and building Ryan & The Remedy, Ryan has crafted a journey fueled by relentless ambition. His band’s upcoming single “Valentine”, from the much-anticipated album “Heart Matter,” represents not just creative evolution but the heart behind his entire brand.

Throughout this conversation, Ryan gets raw about the uncomfortable truths he’s learned in the entertainment industry — the moral dilemmas, the behind-the-scenes politics, and the sacrifices that come with chasing big dreams. He shares how working with icons like Janet Gardner and The Amazing Kreskin shaped his business mindset, and how he’s learned to turn setbacks into strategies. Together, we break down what’s really happening behind the curtains of the music world — what’s broken, what’s evolving, and what it truly takes to survive and thrive as an artist or entrepreneur in 2025.

Ryan also opens up about the process of building a lifestyle brand from scratch — the roadblocks, the sleepless nights, and the breakthroughs that taught him the importance of vision and adaptability. His advice for creators, entrepreneurs, and musicians is brutally honest: success isn’t about luck, it’s about alignment, hard work, and learning to move through discomfort.

This episode isn’t just about business — it’s about mindset. We challenge each other with critical thinking questions that push beyond the surface: what would Ryan do if given $10 million to solve one global problem? What would he tell his 18-year-old self if he only had 30 seconds? How does he balance intuition with logic when making life-changing decisions? His answers reflect the mindset of a creator who’s been through the grind and learned to think like a strategist, not just a dreamer.

So tune in, lock in, and get ready to rumble with truth, growth, and inspiration. This is Rumbling Facts Podcast, where the game gets dissected, and legends get made.
