Ep 85The Brutal Truth About Anchors, Discipline, and Getting Shit Done S3E4
Most people treat procrastination like a character flaw or a mindset issue. It’s not—it’s a scheduling and self-awareness problem. In today’s episode of TD Podcast, Jake Clendenning and Michael Libercci tear apart the myth that willpower and motivation are enough to get things done. Here, you’ll learn why hacks like “using anchors” and stacking your most avoided tasks first thing in your day actually work—and why fighting your natural drop in discipline is a losing battle. Forget trendy advice. This episode is about controlling your inputs, restructuring your environment, and owning the uncomfortable truth: you’re not lazy, you’re undisciplined and unstructured. If you’ve had enough of surface-level self-help and want to attack procrastination for real, this is your wake-up call. Step up. Stop chasing gimmicks. Get decisive, get organized, and execute. Welcome to the conversation where excuses die. You just heard it. Now it's time to do something with it.

Ep 84Stop Chasing Outcomes—Raise Your Standards and Become Bigger Than Your Challenges S3E3
It’s time to stop comparing your insides to someone else’s Instagram highlight reel and finally get radical about your own standards. This episode isn’t for excuse-makers or comfort addicts. Jake Clendenning, Michael Libercci, and Dr. Clendenning crack open why most people stay stuck in lives they’ve “optimized” for minimum effort and maximum stagnation—and why waiting until you “feel” ready is a joke. You’ll hear why real change has nothing to do with motivation, willpower, or chasing the next surface-level success. Instead, we cut to the bone on upgrading your residual self-image, deploying low-tech but high-discipline habits like written affirmations and gratitudes, and interrogating the “big why” driving your daily execution. No fluff. No borrowed quotes. Just the disruptive pattern interrupts and accountability you need to uproot complacency, raise your standards, and finally take ownership of your path—because the truth? Nobody’s coming to save you. Grab a notepad. Commitment required. You just heard it. Now it's time to do something with it.

Ep 83Delete What’s Broken Standards and Execution for Serious Operators S3E2
Ever heard this lie? “If it worked in the past, it’ll work now—just grind harder.” Wrong. What got you here won’t get you there. On today’s TD Podcast, Mike Labersi and Dr. Clendenning call out the excuses, complacency, and stale habits keeping high performers stuck. You’ll hear how Blockbuster ignored reality and died, how shifting habits—fitness, finances, mindsets—demands ruthless self-awareness, and why adaptation isn’t optional. No entertainment. No fluff. Just direct accountability and cold, hard truth: - When success patterns fail, most people regress. - Comfort makes you defend broken systems—personal or professional. - Change starts in your head, not your environment. You want results? Stop rationalizing. Start disrupting. Let’s get to it. You just heard it. Now it's time to do something with it.

Ep 90No Silver Bullets, Just Ruthless Consistency With Marc Fitzwater | S3E1
Most podcasts tiptoe around comfort zones. Not this one. Today on the Total Disruption Podcast, we cut polite applause and get to the real engine—Marc Fitzwater’s uncompromising approach to both life and business. From military structure to entrepreneurial chaos, Marc Fitzwater unpacks what it takes to build something that endures: relentless standards, zero ego, and total ownership. This episode? It’s not a feel-good highlight reel. It’s a playbook for high-performers sick of surface-level talk. We break down: - Why trading vulnerability for visibility is non-negotiable, even for Special Forces. - The fatal flaw of “working in” vs. “working on” your business—a distinction most never grasp. - How execution and alignment—not motivation—drive results, revenue, and impact.

Ep 86Comfort Is the Enemy of Character_ The 100-Salmon Day Story S2E50
What separates high performers from everyone else isn’t talent—it’s their relationship with discomfort. In this powerful Total Disruption episode, Dr. Jake Clendenning and Michael Libercci unpack a timeless insight from Marcus Aurelius: comfort is the enemy of character. This episode isn’t about glorifying grind culture. It’s about understanding the moment comfort quietly turns into complacency. The hosts challenge entrepreneurs to raise their standards, embrace temporary discomfort, and build the mental toughness required for real growth. If you’ve been feeling stuck, stagnant, or suspiciously “too comfortable,” this conversation is your wake-up call. You just heard it. Now it's time to do something with it.

Ep 8215K to 100K_Month in 9 Months_ The Leverage for Growth Formula S2E49
Jesse P. Gilmore, founder of Niche in Control, shares the hard-earned framework behind his Leverage for Growth Method—built after grinding through 60–80 hour weeks in his first three businesses and losing passion because he was “too close to the trees to see the forest.” After a stint in corporate America—where he helped lead a $180M acquisition—Jesse discovered what most founders miss: systems eliminate chaos, and chaos is usually self-created. Processes remove single points of failure. Clarity creates scale. His first agency client jumped from $15K/month to $100K/month in 9 months. Since then, he’s coached 500+ agency owners on how to free themselves from daily operations and rebuild businesses that don’t depend on their constant presence. This episode is a wake-up call for founders stuck in the weeds: you don’t need more hustle—you need leverage. You just heard it. Now it's time to do something with it.

Ep 81S2E48_Marcus Aurelius_ You Dont Control Outcomes—Only Standards
Jake and Michael unpack Marcus Aurelius’s Meditations—which weren’t meditations at all, but wartime journals written under pressure—to expose the Stoic principle most people miss: 👉 You don’t control outcomes. You only control standards. From gym goals and sales quotas to New Year’s resolutions that die by February, this episode breaks down why most people fail: they chase results instead of enforcing non-negotiable inputs. Marcus didn’t write about winning wars—he wrote about how to show up when outcomes are uncertain. That lesson still applies to business, health, money, and leadership today. This conversation reframes success as a function of discipline, execution, and refusal to tolerate mediocrity, not wishful thinking disguised as goals. You just heard it.

Ep 80S2E47_AI Isnt Goliath—Its the Slingshot_ How Small Businesses Beat Giants
Gal Borenstein, founder of a Top 50 B2B agency serving the DC and Department of Defense ecosystem for 30 years, flips the fear-based AI narrative on its head. In this Total Disruption episode, Gal proves that small businesses aren’t competing with AI—they’re using AI to beat giants who are slow, bloated, and trust-deficient. While big corporations struggle with culture leaks, Glassdoor exposure, and internal distrust, niche players can move faster, build deeper relationships, and use AI as a precision weapon—not a replacement for humanity. Gal’s two books, Don’t Believe the Hype: When Trust Is on the Line and Beating Goliath with AI, outline exactly how trust, metrics that matter, and AI-assisted validation create decade-long client retention in an industry where 2–3 years is the norm. This episode is a masterclass on trust-first growth, AI realism (not hype), and why people still buy from people—even when the product is advanced technology. You just heard it.

Ep 79S2E46_What If Your Best Days Are Behind You and You Didnt Even Know It
Jake and Michael deliver a philosophical gut-check most people avoid: what if you’re living in the “good old days” right now—and you’re too distracted to notice? From Jake’s onion ring tragedy (his body literally rejects them now) to flow states, disassociation under pressure, and the dopamine hangover of doom scrolling, this episode exposes a hard truth—your best health, relationships, opportunities, and timing might be TODAY. They break down why humans only recognize peak moments after they’re gone, how comfort quietly erodes awareness, and why movement—not motivation—is the antidote to stagnation. This isn’t nostalgia.

Ep 78S2E45_16 Years a Drug Addict, Stripper, Loser Magnet—Then NLP Changed It
From Rock Bottom to Quantum Transformation Debra and Brandon Yager—founders of Yager Training—share a raw, unfiltered origin story that cuts straight through spiritual fluff and business BS. From addiction, sex work, and self-destruction to conscious selling, language mastery, and quantum transformation, this episode exposes how the words you use determine the life you live. Debra’s 16-year spiral wasn’t random. It was patterned—reinforced by the labels she used and the beliefs she repeated. Meeting Brandon at an NLP training in Las Vegas in 2013 became the inflection point that turned pain into purpose and trauma into a scalable mission. You just heard it.

Ep 77S2E44_100-Hour Weeks_The Math Says You Have 19 Hours Left—Heres The Truth
In this unapologetic episode of Total Disruption, Dr. Jake Clendenning and Michael Libercci dismantle the glorified fantasy of the 100-hour workweek—and replace it with something far more dangerous: math. 100 hours of work + ~49 hours of sleep = 19 hours left per week (≈ 2.7 hours/day) for eating, showering, driving, family, thinking, and recovery.

Ep 76S2E43_Aaron Rodgers at 41, Tom Brady at 45_ The Second Chance Formula
Jake and Michael dismantle the tired lie “you’re not as good as you used to be” by exposing one of the most dangerous limiting beliefs in business, leadership, and life: that age equals decline. They break down the aging athlete phenomenon, using elite performers like Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Philip Rivers, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Lionel Messi—all of whom continued performing at world-class levels well into their late 30s and 40s. The conclusion is unavoidable: What changed wasn’t their ability. It was their approach. You just heard it. Now it's time to do something with it.

Ep 75S2E42_Down 20K, Facing Homelessness, One Church Stage Saved His Family
In this powerful episode of Total Disruption, Dr. Jake Clendenning interviews the immigrant entrepreneur who proves public speaking is the fastest path to business breakthrough—not marketing. Sebastian did everything “right.” He built funnels. Ran ads. Paid for email marketing. Showed up on social media. And still lost $20,000 trying to make his finance business work. Then everything collapsed at once. Both parents lost their jobs. Eviction was imminent. Homelessness was no longer theoretical. Sebastian was ready to quit. Until a phone call changed everything. An elderly mentor—fresh out of a stroke, voice barely audible—called from a hospital bed and asked Sebastian to speak at a church on his behalf. That one reluctant “yes” didn’t just save his family. It changed the trajectory of his life. You just heard it. Now it's time to do something with it.

Ep 74S2E41_After 38 Years, She Called Her Sister, Then Her Financial Guy
Eighty percent of investors say financial advisors all sound the same—and for good reason. Most of the industry was built to turn people into numbers, not humans into confident decision-makers. In this Total Disruption episode, Dr. Jake Clendenning sits down with Eric Mangold, founder of Argosy Wealth Management, to unpack what happens when financial advising becomes relationship-first instead of asset-first. After spending 15 years inside a system obsessed with “minimums” and account size, Eric walked away and launched his firm in 2022 with a radical premise: Wealth isn’t a number—it’s the freedom to live without fear.

Ep 73S2E40_Laid Off in 2009, Built Costa Rica Domes_ The Unscatter Formula
Most women leadership coaches aren’t failing—they’re scattered. Chasing every opportunity. Drowning in tactics. Burning out long before they ever reach the level they’re capable of. In this episode of Total Disruption, Dr. Jake Clendenning interviews Carol Williams, founder of the Beacon of Light Center, whose journey proves that thinking expansively while staying grounded is the real formula for sustainable growth. After being laid off in 2009 with zero business knowledge, Carol “fell down and almost drowned several times” before building a thriving retreat business that’s now expanding internationally—with Costa Rica retreat domes opening in late 2025.

Ep 72S2E39_136 vs 22_ Why Chasing New Customers Is Bankrupting Your Business
Most entrepreneurs are bleeding money chasing new customers—while their existing customers quietly walk out the back door. In this Total Disruption episode, Dr. Jake Clendenning sits down with Vance Morris, a former birth-control factory security guard turned Disney leader turned bankrupt executive turned home-service entrepreneur. Today, Vance runs three home service businesses on just 90 minutes per week—using Disney systems, ruthless simplicity, and an 80/20 retention model. The brutal math tells the story: • New customer = $136 • Retained customer = $22 Retention isn’t a “nice to have.” It’s a 6x profit multiplier. You just heard it.

Ep 71S2E38_Human Design Secrets Why 100% of Burnt-Out Entrepreneurs Miss This
Burnout isn’t caused by working too hard. It’s caused by working out of alignment. In this powerful episode of Total Disruption, Dr. Jake Clendenning sit down with Stephanie Carlstedt, the visionary disruptor who reveals why 90% of entrepreneurs are unknowingly building businesses that fight their natural design. Stephanie’s journey began after leaving corporate America following her father’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis—an event that led her to discover Human Design, a science of differentiation based on birth data (time, date, and location) that shows how you are biologically wired to make decisions, create wealth, communicate, and lead.

Ep 70S2E37_DUIs, 3 Failed Marriages, Wrote 2 Books_The Probation Officer Changed It
Transformation doesn’t start with motivation. It starts with interruption. Someone sees you before you see yourself—and refuses to let you stay small. Michael’s story dismantles the lie that “some people are just built different.” They aren’t. Three failed marriages. Two DUIs. Driving a truck 10,000 miles a month. Barely passing English. Zero belief that change was possible.

Ep 69S2E36_From 40K to 6.5M in 12 Months_ The VC Speed Secret Nobody Tells You
Most entrepreneurs think funding is about money. It’s not. It’s about buying speed. In this hard-hitting episode of Total Disruption, host Mike Libecci sits down with serial entrepreneur and VC strategist Vidar Hokstad, who has spent 30 years building startups, from launching his first company at 19 to raising $6.5M and relocating an entire team across borders on first investment.

Ep 68S2E35_Women Survive Instead of Live_ The Global Movement Changing Everything
Most women aren’t living—they’re surviving. After 23 years as a psychotherapist, Catalina saw the same pattern everywhere: women feeling alone, disconnected, judged, and unheard. She saw it in her clients—and eventually, in herself. In this deeply human episode of Total Disruption, Dr. Jake Clendenning sits down with the Romanian founder of the “A Live in Her” Global Movement, a community built to provide the safe space Catalina once desperately needed—but couldn’t find.

Ep 64S2E31_Youre Not Broken_ Why Goals Kill Dreams & Gifts Create Wealth
You’ve been chasing the wrong thing. Goals are ego-driven lies. Gifts are divine assignments. In this paradigm-shifting episode of Total Disruption, Dr. Jake Clendenning sits down with Mr. 2020 (yes, his legal name), a lifelong Napoleon Hill practitioner who proves the biggest lie holding entrepreneurs back is: “I’m not ready yet.” Key Takeaways: • Why he legally changed his name to Mr. 2020—and convinced a State Trooper and a judge it was brilliant • The fatal flaw in traditional goal-setting: moving from “imperfect → perfect” destroys momentum • Gifts vs. man-made goals: one is divine intervention, the other is ego noise • How a brutal corrections-officer assault (white light, PTSD and all) became his greatest gift • Why you’re not broken—you’re a songbird with a sacred song that literally lifts the sun • The 8-year-old lens: How childlike perception reveals your unique calling • Pure possibility: A $7 PDF written in 7 hours becomes $7,000+ in passive income “People with vision don’t end up in courtrooms—they change the world.” Stop preparing.
