    Hello De-Influencers, This is going to be our last De-Influenced Wednesday. Don’t panic tho because we’ve jam-packed this one with stories from the last two weeks and pop culture updates. We’re talking parenting hacks while shopping, why females love their true crime and a crazy story taking over TikTok. Plus, Dani’s causing a stir by being pro-media literacy?? We talk about the backlash and praise she got on her recent stories and why Theo Von may be the political interviewer the country needs. To stir up some more controversy, we’re getting Dani’s take on Sara Blakely’s new line of luxury-hybrid stilettos. Oh and of course we talk about the fear the internet has instilled in Tornado about the beloved air fryers, which ours is linked on our LTK, along with the Paris Hilton scissors Dani couldn’t pass up ;) Paris Hilton Scissors Drew Barrymore Air Fryer While we’re on the subject of links we’ve worked with True Nutrition to get you guys a deal on some of our favorite supplements. Take the guesswork out of nutrition with True Nutrition and get 15% off with code DEINFLUENCED at truenutrition.com/deinfluenced ! Finally, we share some news about the podcast and why you won’t hear from us next week :( BUT we do hope you’ll be on the lookout for what’s coming next from De-Influenced.

  • Culture Wars, Personal Faith, & Navigating Politics with the President of Toyota

    Culture Wars, Personal Faith, & Navigating Politics with the President of Toyota
    Aug 28 2024
    Happy Wednesday!! Oh boy do we have an episode for you!! On this week’s episode we are lucky enough to have on my best friend’s dad and President of Toyota North America, Jack Hollis. It was fascinating to pick Jack’s brain about leadership inside and outside of the office, how he raised humble kids and how big corporations handle outside pressure. While we deepdive on these topics, there is one theme that remains true throughout every phase of his life and that is his faith. Jack and his wife are avid believers and credit their successes and journey to their faith. From turning down Toyota after his initial interview to being with the company for 33 years and becoming their North American President there is so much to learn from Jack about leadership, family and faith. We hope you love this episode as much as we do! AND don’t forget we got some great deals from our favorite brands exclusively for our listeners: Simplify your kiddo’s mealtime with 30% OFF your first order.
