1.Build the best version of you.

2. I don’t have time to spare meddling with other people’s life.

Are these both grammatically correct?

It isn't grammatical, strictly speaking, but it'd work as an advertising slogan or tagline. We don't have any context for how you want to use this.

2. I don’t have time to spare meddling with other people’s life.
I don't have the time [to spare] to meddle in other people's lives. (Using "with" instead of "in" would change the meaning to some extent.)

Talab1234, please stop asking whether your sentences are 'grammatically correct'. This is not the most important thing that you need to know. You should be more concerned whether your sentences are natural and make sense. If they are ungrammatical, we'll definitely tell you that too.

What do you want to mean? How do you wish to use this sentence?

2. I don’t have time to spare meddling with other people’s lives.

I say this is wrong. You need for before meddling:

to have time to do something
to have time for (doing) something

Also, if you explain the context in which you want to use your sentences, it'd help.

It would be grammatical as an imperative, though pretty much nonsensical. I'd leave it to advertisers.
