De-Influenced with Dani + Jordan

Dani had a toxic shock syndrome scare, and she’s sharing the whole story so it never happens to you!!! Plus, the question all over our feeds this week: should Christians celebrate Halloween? 🎃 After weeks of UTI symptoms, two rounds of antibiotics and six OB offices that couldn’t see her, the answer was hiding in plain sight: a forgotten tampon. We talk the signs of TSS to watch for and why her d...

Carl and Laura Lentz join Jordan for an honest conversation about marriage, infidelity, forgiveness, and what it really takes to rebuild trust after betrayal. After Carl's highly publicized departure from Hillsong NYC in 2020, their family faced a painful and very public season of change. Now, Carl and Laura are opening up about the years that followed, including the decision to stay together, the...

This week on De-Influenced, we're getting into a little bit of everything, starting with the internet having some THOUGHTS about our new house. Dani reads some of the comments surrounding a recent home update, and we get into the bigger conversation about influencer culture, money, and why people are so frustrated with what they see online. Speaking of influencers, Pete Davidson recently had some...

This week on De-Influenced, Dani and Jordan are going down a few rabbit holes you won't see coming. Jordan shares why he backed out of Peter Thiel's secret Antichrist lecture after discovering where it was being held (hint: the Freemasons are involved 👀). They get into AI, spiritual warfare, and some pretty wild theories about where technology could be taking us. Then, Dani breaks down the distur...

This week, Dani and Jordan are questioning whether being too unfiltered on the podcast is finally catching up with them. Jordan issues an apology after his Alix Earle/Braxton Berrios “source” turns out to be… not so reliable, and they get into the weird reality of sharing honest opinions when the people you’re talking about might actually hear them. Plus, Dani recaps the Chiefs game with Brittany...

Can you really have it all — the career, the family, the marriage, the dreams…all at the same time? This week, Dani and Jordan are diving into the new season of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, from Taylor Frankie Paul’s ongoing chaos to Jen and Zac’s struggle to balance marriage, family, and big career ambitions. But the conversation quickly hits close to home. Dani and Jordan reflect on a seaso...

We have A LOT to unpack this week. Dani is officially hooked on Alix Earle’s new reality show — and somehow Jordan is too — which leads us straight into the Braxton Berrios breakup, why Dani thinks Alix may have chosen her career over the relationship, and a little piece of information Jordan has apparently been sitting on: Braxton had a ring?! We also get into the Alix Earle vs. Alex Cooper drama...

This week, Dani and Jordan are catching up on everything from Dani finally getting back into working out six months postpartum to a very real conversation about SSRIs, anxiety, and what happens when you try to come off medication too quickly. Then we get into the internet rabbit holes: the man who allegedly spent years pretending to be a San Francisco 49ers player and scammed 26 women out of more...

Would you pay $6,500 to get your baby to sleep? Because apparently… that’s an option. 😂 This week, Dani and Jordan debate whether they’re desperate enough to hire a three-day baby sleep trainer — and somehow that turns into a much bigger conversation about all the things parents are told they need to be doing for their kids. Plus, Jordan officially becomes THAT dad at 4-year-old soccer, Dani surv...

This week on De-Influenced, we are officially in our back-to-school era… and apparently that means approximately 400 drop-offs, pick-ups, soccer practices and things to remember every single day. 😂 We're talking about the chaos of getting the kids into a routine, whether we need to seriously re-divide the mental load in our marriage, and why Dani is apparently preparing for the collapse of the fi...

Things got a little TOO honest this week. 😂 Jordan admits he was fully spiraling after a chaotic few weeks of traveling, sick kids and approximately zero alone time—and Dani shares the surprisingly simple thing that apparently fixed everything overnight. Marriage with four kids, people!!! Then we get into the internet's obsession with judging parents, Dani responds to getting called "out of touch...

Happy Thursday, De-Influencers!! We are ALL over the place today 😂 We’re starting with a little life update from Nashville before getting into the things we think are actually worth splurging on… and apparently Dani and Jordan have VERY different definitions of a “splurge.” We’re also settling the debate on tipping culture because WHY does every screen ask for 30% now?! Then things take a deeper...

Our Costa Rica trip was honestly one of our favorite family vacations EVER…and then the trip home happened. 😂 This week we're recapping everything—from our flight getting canceled, getting stranded in Charlotte with four kids, and somehow still managing to laugh through all of it. We also ended up having a surprisingly real conversation about control, why Jordan finally took his shoes off (it's d...

This week we're catching up on everything that's happened over the last few days... and somehow it includes a trip to urgent care, a fake broken toe, girls' night, minivan debates, and a life update after our move to Nashville. We also answer some of your questions about how we're really doing since the move, what work looks like now, missing family, surviving life with four kids, and why neither...

Sometimes the best conversations are the ones you never plan. This week we're talking about everything from Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey to AI, data centers, birth rates, marriage after kids, moving to Nashville, finding community, and why we're always falling down new rabbit holes together. We also share what we're learning about family life, personal growth, and why discomfort isn't...

We're officially in Nashville... and after just one week, we already have so much to talk about.

Of course, we also go down plenty of rabbit trails! F...

HAHA just kidding!!Despite what the title might suggest, this is just our last episode recorded in Dallas before we officially make the move to Nashville. It’s short but sweet! We have an honest conversation about everything we're feeling right now—the excitement, the grief of leaving a place that's been home for six years, the fear of starting over, and what it means to build community from scrat...

Our most requested guests are finally here! We recently traveled to Nashville and sat down with Dani's brother Landon and his wife Olivia just weeks before they welcome their first baby. From pregnancy scares and preparing for parenthood to marriage, Nashville life, and family dynamics, this episode is full of stories, laughs, and plenty of Austin family chaos. We also talk about growing up in the...

NOTE: We ran into an unexpected technical issue during recording and decided to release this week's episode as audio-only. We appreciate you rolling with us and can't wait to be back to normal next week. Don't worry though... we've got a little surprise coming that should more than make up for it! This week, we sat down to record a normal episode and somehow ended up discussing postpartum hormones...

We're preparing for the big move, debating family trips, talking about what drives successful people, and going down a few DEEP rabbit holes along the way.

We rounded up some great deals from a few of our favorite brands for you: Stick with your well...

Dani thought she had prolapse, Jordan thinks aliens are demons, and somehow we ended up talking about Alex Cooper, bot farms, influencer clipping agencies, fake internet culture, and whether social media is discipling our kids. So yeah… this episode kinda goes everywhere. We also talk postpartum life, Dani’s new veneers, conspiracy theories, The Bachelor rumors, moving to Nashville, and why the in...

From how she got the nickname to her unexpected TV past, the conversation covers parenting, work ethic, relationships, and the differences between generations. Along the way, she calls out everything from Dani’s home habits to how she approaches life, and she does not hold back. They also get into motherhood, b...

After our latest trip, something shifted… Dani is officially starting to warm up to Nashville. We talk through what felt different this time, from the people and culture to some unexpected moments that made us seriously consider what life could look like there.
