About this listen

 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) Career Success Economics Hygiene & Healthy Living Leadership Management & Leadership Psychology Psychology & Mental Health

  • Escape the Digital Trap: Why Addiction to Stimulation Destroys Entrepreneurial Edge | S3E16

    Escape the Digital Trap: Why Addiction to Stimulation Destroys Entrepreneurial Edge | S3E16
    Mar 31 2026
    You’re not “busy,” you’re addicted. Most entrepreneurs cripple their potential with a constant drip of digital distraction—fooled into thinking they’re consuming wisdom while wasting their edge. It’s not about more input. It’s about reclaiming command of your mind, your focus, and your life. Entrepreneurs today are drowning in a sea of social media, overstimulation, and digital addiction. The most debilitating threat to execution and discipline is not outside pressure, but self-inflicted digital chaos. The core principle in this episode: Sustained exposure to digital stimulation erodes your ability to act, think, and lead at the level required for extraordinary results. To break free, you must impose non-negotiable constraints on your consumption, model the discipline you demand from others, and replace passive stimulus with direct, challenging, experiential action. This isn’t optional—your business, leadership, and legacy depend on it. You just heard it. Now it's time to do something with it. If this episode hit home, here's how to take action: 🔥 Join The Conversation: Leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify and tell us which insight you're implementing first.

  • The Real Reason You Stay Stuck: Productivity Isn’t the Problem—It’s Ownership | S3E15

    The Real Reason You Stay Stuck: Productivity Isn’t the Problem—It’s Ownership | S3E15
    Mar 29 2026
    Too many high-performers believe the next tool, routine, or “hack” will finally unlock consistent results. False. The real game-changer isn’t how much you do—but how ruthlessly you own your time, your standards, and your energy. If you’re grinding through endless tasks yet never moving the needle, that’s not hustle. That’s avoidance disguised as productivity. Dr. Jake Clendenning and Michael Libercci expose why most entrepreneurs plateau—they refuse to own their calendars and let reactive habits dictate their energy, priorities, and output. The difference between average and extraordinary is never in tools or tactics. It’s the daily, ruthless discipline to plan, execute, and recover with intention—while never making excuses for low standards. You just heard it. Now it's time to do something with it.
