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)
