Total Disruption with Dr. Jake Clendenning & Michael Libercci Remember when you started your business because you wanted freedom—and somehow ended up more trapped than ever? Yeah. We've been there too. Dr. Jake Clendenning (CEO, author, recovering perfectionist) and Michael Libercci (business strategist, straight-shooter extraordinaire) have coached hundreds of entrepreneurs out of survival mode and into total market domination. Now they're pulling back the curtain on everything they've learned—the wins, the face-plants, and the billion-dollar lessons most "experts" gatekeep. This is the podcast for entrepreneurs who are: → Sick of chasing tactics that worked for someone else's business → Tired of "hustle culture" that glorifies burnout → Ready to build influence that attracts opportunity instead of begging for it → Done settling for "good enough" when greatness is one framework away From the science of flow state to why your defensive mindset is sabotaging your growth, we go deep on the conversations you won't hear anywhere else. Plus, we bring on guests who've actually built the empires they teach about (novel concept, right?). New episodes every week. Raw. Real. Ruthlessly practical. Join The Guild. Master the KLT Formula. Become the entrepreneur your industry can't ignore. My Recommendation: Go with Option 1 if you want to stand out in a crowded space and attract high-conviction entrepreneurs who are sick of the noise. Go with Option 2 if you want to position Total Disruption as THE authority-building resource for serious business owners. Go with Option 3 if you want to build community and create that "this podcast gets me" feeling. Pro tip: Whatever you choose, make sure it includes: A provocative question or statement in the first 10 words Specific outcomes (not vague "business tips") Your unique mechanism (KLT Formula, Total Disruption methodology) A CTA (subscribe, join, transform) Social proof (LATPN, bestselling author, guest caliber)

    Stop Blaming—Start Owning: The Uncomfortable Truth That Frees High Performers | S3E28

    You are the problem. And that’s the best news you’ll hear all week. Because if you are the problem… you can also become the solution. In this raw episode of Total Disruption, Dr. Jake Clendenning and Michael Libercci sit down with iron-willed entrepreneur and Army veteran Scott Lackey to dismantle one of the biggest performance killers in modern life: 👉 Blame. Blame feels relieving in the moment. It gives you a villain. It protects ego. It explains failure. But it also keeps you powerless. Scott’s philosophy is blunt and liberating: When crisis hits, your first move is not to accuse. It is to inspect your own role, own your next move, and reclaim control. That shift—from victimhood to ownership—is the line between average and elite. You just heard it. Now it's time to do something with it.

    Two Mornings a Day: The Real Secret to Sustaining Breakneck Productivity Without Burnout | S3E27

    Everyone wants an “extra gear.” Very few know how to access it without destroying themselves. In this high-performance episode of Total Disruption, Dr. Jake Clendenning and Michael Libercci dismantle mainstream productivity myths and expose why so many ambitious people burn out: They treat the day like it only has one beginning. Most people rely on one morning burst, then spend the rest of the day reacting, fading, forcing, and dragging themselves to the finish line. Jake and Michael argue for a different model: 👉 Build multiple mornings into one day. That means creating deliberate energy resets—physical, mental, nutritional, emotional—so you can produce two or even three true peaks instead of one early spike followed by decline. This is not hustle culture. This is pacing, precision, and strategic recovery. When goals are massive and resources are limited, you don’t need to grind harder. You need to structure output cycles that match real human performance. You just heard it. Now it's time to do something with it.

    Obsessed with Old Arguments? The Brutal Truth About Mental Noise and Serious Success | S3E26

    You say you’re disciplined—but your mind is crowded with old fights, imaginary debates, replayed conversations, and unresolved emotional residue. That internal chaos becomes external mediocrity. In this sharp-edged episode of Total Disruption, Dr. Jake Clendenning and Michael Libercci break down one of the most ignored performance killers in business and life: 👉 Mental noise. Most entrepreneurs think they’re losing because of market conditions, timing, competitors, or bad luck. In reality, many are losing because their attention is hijacked by loops that should have been closed months—or years—ago. This is not “mindset fluff.” It’s operational reality. Focus is finite. If unresolved arguments are consuming bandwidth, then your client calls, leadership, decision-making, relationships, and execution all pay the price. The solution? Not suppression. Not endless rumination. Not distraction. Closure + ownership + disciplined redirection. You just heard it. Now it's time to do something with it.
