AI, Antidepressants & Grandma Hobbies

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 than $1 million, AI agents that are starting to sound a little too much like the plot of a sci-fi movie, and why everyone suddenly seems to be trading screen time for sourdough, sewing, and embroidery. Plus, Dani and Jordan talk about how life has shifted since moving to Nashville, redefining what “success” actually looks like, and why being surrounded by people who value faith, family, and fruitfulness over achievements has been surprisingly challenging — in the best way. It’s internet chaos, life updates, a few rabbit holes, and some unexpectedly deep thoughts. Basically… a very De-Influenced episode.
