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.
Vidar pulls back the curtain on why 90% of VC pitches are rejected before the first meeting—and why most founders unknowingly disqualify themselves the moment they open their deck.
This episode isn’t theory. It’s how venture capital actually works.
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.
This conversation isn’t about motivation posters or surface-level empowerment. It’s about real connection, clear communication, and rebuilding the “village” women were never meant to lose.
Most people are chasing the next book, retreat, or ceremony—convinced that will finally fix them. In this paradigm-shifting episode of Total Disruption, Dr. Jake Clendenning interviews Miguel Hernandez, licensed mental health therapist and creator of Sovereign Flow, who delivers a brutal truth most people don’t want to hear:
You’re not broken. You never were.
After a decade working with tribes in Washington State and five years deep in plant medicine practices, Miguel realized the real work wasn’t happening in the body—it was happening (or not happening) in the mind. This conversation dismantles the self-improvement addiction and replaces it with awareness, acceptance, and responsibility.
Most aspiring authors waste 3–4 years chasing traditional publishers—only to lose 80–90% of their royalties if they ever get a deal. In this game-changing episode of Total Disruption, Michael Libercci interviews Tyler Wagner, founder of Authors Unite, who cracked the publishing code at 19 and has helped over 5,000 people become best-selling authors over the last 15 years.
Tyler breaks down why self-publishing is now the superior path for 90% of authors and how he reverse-engineered every major best-seller list.
Most entrepreneurs think writing a book is about typing 50,000 words. They’re wrong—and that’s exactly why 90% of self-published books fail. In this no-BS episode of Total Disruption, Dr. Jake Clendenning interviews Scott Sery, professional ghostwriter and author educator, to expose the brutal truth behind books that actually build authority.
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.”

Remote work is quietly sabotaging the careers of young professionals.
This episode isn’t anti-remote work—it’s anti-career-stagnation. And Borja pulls zero punches.
