In this episode, we were joined by @thedaniaustin and her husband Jordan Ramirez. Dani opened up about her surprise pregnancy, her struggle with hair loss, and her journey of wearing wigs, which ultimately inspired the creation of their company, Divi. Their business achieved remarkable success, earning over $40 million in revenue in its first year.

My husband is a federal employee (he works in the FAA) he works on the computers that help keep flights safe. When you say federal employees just remember there are federal employees who have nothing to do with our government running. I love you Matt and Abby have been a long time follower.
We need federal employees a lot of them do a lot of thankless work. It can be so much easier to see the bad stuff then choose to see the good.
Agreed its the bad eggs at the top. 😉
MISSION FOR 2024!! Have Bridgit Mendler on the podcast!!✨️💗💗💗💕💕💕🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
oh heck yes
she is way too smart to be on this podcast
@@swimmer5572 😂😂that’s accurate
Heck yes!
yes!
I loved this episode so much! I’m a farmer in the middle of nowhere . So interesting to hear the perspectives!! Also you can tell Jordan is a man of God, lots of wisdom. Here’s some encouragement Matt and Abby!
I like it when Matt extends his hand to Abby.....and they hold hands. How sweet! And then Matt would also lay his hand on top of Abby's lap.
He’s on camera lol get real
Geez is the bar really that low?
@@jayelle5375fr like thats the bear minimum
I absolutely loved hearing Dani and her husband talk about their journey through the lens of their faith. Such an inspiring couple!🤍🙏🏻
Funny how so many of your guests openly say that they are Christians/believers but then they all seem to not be supposed to say more on here😅 a pity! Would be nice if you let them share more about their faith. I feel like they'd want to!
I feel the same.
This was one of the best episodes yet! Loved how politics and history were discussed in an open, fun, and productive way. And also loved hearing from successful, humble people about how their business started.
Love how open Jordan is about the Lord!!🤍
What if he was an atheist? Would you still love him sharing his beliefs? I say keep it out of your "job" unless you are employed as a preacher.
@@Stargazer95485that’s what podcasts are, sharing opinions from all sides 😊
@oliviab4412 Sure, I want to hear all sides or no sides
@@Stargazer95485 they go t asked how they met, and it was a vital part of the story and their life apparently so i see nothing wrong with that...
@@Stargazer95485i’m religious and i agree. i keep any religion talk out of my professional settings. work wise, group wise, no matter where UNLESS someone asks. other than that it’s no one’s business but mine. i see what ur saying
I so love the way y'all are so relaxed & its just like sitting & watching a group of people who have been friends since all their lives.
Guys subscribe they are so worth it.
“are you sure you guys love each other” 🤣🤣🤣
The layze video says it all😂😂😂
It was brief, but from a female perspective, it was actually really refreshing to hear 2 married men speaking frankly about their role in birth control, methods tried (and failed), how they feel about it etc. Men often don't share their perspective about a lot of topics with women. I think it would be wonderful if Matt sat down with a group of male friends, married, dateing, single and did an entire episode about the male perspective. Women really do care, but find it difficult to get men to share with us.
I have super baby fine hair to begin with now I'm losing hair. What a sweet and authentic couple that are so relatable and successful is so rare anymore
Me too, you’re not alone!
@@lilleoelleme too! Thin, fine and now thinning 🙂↕️
The fight part 🤣🤣🤣 “YOU DONT KNOW WHAT SHE SAYS OFF PODCAST. IT HURT MY FEELINGS” 🤣🤣🤣🤍
57:36 for laughs & giggles
That's how it was with my cancer diagnosis last year. I kept it all to myself at first, then told my family but no one would have known I was going through treatments. No one did. Once I started sharing more ppl could relate and it becomes less of a monster sharing it. Once I was open I felt like I could be more myself again since I don't need to hide it.
This was a great episode, one of my favs! I had never heard of Dani & Jordan, thanks for having them on :)
This is actually my favourite podcast! ❤❤❤❤ love you guys ❤
these are just a really sweet couple. i love them
Jordan having an alter ego that loves dance movies is so me 😂😂 i have zero rhythem but LOVE the step up franchise! This was such a fun watch, my favorite episode yet!!
Loved hearing from Dani and Jordan, ive never heard of them before. But they seem like such incrediable genuine people.
I started following their podcast and cant wait to hear more from them
I went through the IUD rejection process and she is being nice about how painful it is. Worst pain, and to this day if I think about where that pain was, it makes me cramp
You guys are amazing!! Love your work❤❤❤ I get excited every time I get notification that you’ve posted another podcast you guys absolutely make my day. It’s midnight where I’m at but I’m all in listening to you guys.❤❤❤❤
If you ever meet someone who is loosing their hair, be kind. It’s hard to convey but loosing your hair in chunks is absolutely terrible.
This has been my favorite episode so far!! Loved it so much!! ❤️
Yay!! So excited about the dry shamp.
I love these guests! I’m very entertained 😊
A great episode. Inspiring content. Highlighting wonderful people doing Brave things.
You guys are always doing a great job! thanks for always giving us the best podcasts. i have been watching the unplanned podcast since the 1st episode. love you guys❤
I love these two couples! I laughed so much with you four!!!!!❤❤
Favorite podcast! Love listening to you guys.
Always followed Landon, Danis brother but didn't even know about her journey! Yay!
I had no idea who they were before this episode , but I love them! Thank you so much Matt and Abby this podcast and you guys are amazing ❤
When I used to be on IG, I followed Dani and I miss seeing her on my feed so much. She has such a beautiful spirit and she’s so sweet. I miss seeing her and Jordan and Hazel and Lola ❤️ This episode is exactly why I love them, they’re just a married couple trying to raise their kids, live life and make good use of the platform they were given.
Hazel passed away 😢
@@hannahjenkins7502 I know 😭 RIP sweet girl
Absolutely love this episode!
MattandAbby I Love you both, listen every Wednesday! I appreciate this video. In 2020 I was diagnosed with a pituitary tumor and Cushing's disease. This caused so many symptoms including hair loss/thining. I'm glad there is a platform to help women with this.
I was diagnosed with Cushings disease back in 2022! So glad to see there are other people listening to this podcast that had similar life experiences. During Cushings it was very lonely and traumatic. Seeing this makes ya feel a little less lonely!
I didn't get through the whole thing did they say the product name?
i love how yall just dive in to the podcast
I didn’t even really know this couple but this episode is by far one of my favorites!
Two of my favorite couples on the internet. I love itttt 😂❤️
I love that these feel like real conversations between friends 😂 I know they are gonna all be best friends after this episode.
Favorite episode thus far!!
I am so happy I actually watched this episode. I love Matt and Abby, but didn’t know this couple.. I’ve had Covid three times and have lost soooooo much hair😭 Like my hair comes out in clumps!! This episode was honestly a God send!!!!! Thank you!
Great episode!! Love the topics.
Best one yet!!!! Love Dani and her hubbby!!!
This episode had some very funny moments! Love this episode.
Wednesdays have become a day I now look forward to thanks to your podcast! 🥰 when I’m watching, my fiancé always stops to peak in too!🤣
12 minutes in and the funniest podcast by far! I look forward to these every week as it’s my social time when I can’t see people in real life. (We had our first sons at the same time) These episodes are so good for my soul! Thank you!
Love your podcast❤️ Watch it every week plus subscribed/follow to all your other social medias. Great interviews! Abby what shoes do you have on in this episode, I love them!!
Favorite podcast so far
This is the best episode yet👏🏼
Agreed❣️
Loved this episode
I’ve recently found myself watching podcast and genuinely loved this episode!!
Loved this one!
Glad to hear Tim Keller's books mentioned. Strong Christian message.
Possibly the best episode yet!!! Lllloooovvveee
I already love this video and I just started watching it. I'd love to see Jeanine Amapola Ward and Kaleb Ward on your podcast one day! Also would love to see Jaclyn Brooke on here. 🧡
Best guests to date!
The “pull & pray” method has worked for me so far 😅🤞🏼
So glad to hear other young people talking about their views on politics and trying to be educated on real issues!! Always have been of you you guys and now a fan of Dani and Jordan too. ❤
Loving constructive criticism for Matt:
When asking a question you often say the question perfectly then immediately start reiterating the exact same thing you just said.
Try to just ask the initial question and follow up if clarification or a second question is needed.
It’s repetitive but the other thing I noticed is that you get long winded and more descriptive and sometimes repeat the same thing 3 times, and you lose your quest along the way and end up having to just say the original version of the question again.
I noticed it when you ask the “from the outsside looking in everything looked perfect” question. It happened 1-2 episodes ago and I remember because Abby was like “uh you lost me?” 😂
You are naturally good at interviewing and asking good questions. I thought this might help you pack more good questions into the pod, and just help the flow of conversation and limit awkward moments.
It’s not a big deal but I thought you’d appreciate it. Hope it comes across clearly. Great job episode. I’m from San Antonio and I’m glad I tuned in. Sometimes I dont know what to expect because I don’t know a lot of yalls guests, but I’ve never been disappointed! The interviews are always interesting regardless of how familiar I am or how relevant it is to my life. I just think that says a lot about yalls pod. I wouldn’t think yall were beginners if I hadn’t been following yall for a while.
Too bad they don't read the comments, or so they say, because that's great advice.
Maybe because they engaged or enjoyed so much talking about a particular topic they seemed lost. My opinion .
Bridgit is the brains in this family....we need more women like her!!!!
Can you do tiffany bates & Lawson bates soon?
Dallas stars games:
I do agree fammy event. However, i have taken my dad and my brother (need to take my mom) just us separately and its such a great bonding experience tbh, the one on one.
I love my sibling bonding moments 😂
Love you guyssssssssss🎉❤ you have the best podcast in the world every day I look forward to your videos🎊😘🥰🎉😎🤪
You HAVE to listen to hardcore history! I used to hate history and my fiance got me hooked. You would love it Matt!
This was seriously the best episode yet, imo! Absolutely loved it and both couples!!! 🥰
Every single Unplanned Podcast is just so fun! I catch myself releasing the funniest giggles! Lol
Great podcast
Plsss pls do Sam & Jess ! Pleassee ! ❤
Hi Matt and Abby! I love your channel and podcast! You are also some of the most kind, loving people out there! I loved this episode and recently watched an episode where you mentioned the enneagram! I just took a class at my university about the enneagram and would love to answer any questions you may have about it - such as how we develop our number, how numbers interact with each other, Disney enneagrams, love languages and the enneagram, etc. Let me know if this interests you!
Such a fun episode! Except for I got PTSD about being so confident in the IUD method. Lol I got pregnant with an IUD 😂😅 talk about unplanned! But our biggest blessing now of course! 🤭
Yup the end was the best part podcast 😂😂😂.
They don’t care that they’re being judged for being preppers because they know that if anything ever happens they won’t have to worry about their family ❤
I'd love to see y'all get Roger & Talia Scott on for an episode!!
Such a good episode. Looking up divi now 😅
She has the prettiest eyes
Divi is amazing my hair has grown longer and thicker than ever before while using it!
Best podcast yet. Love that Some politics and conspiracy was covered... fun and would love more so I subbed.
This is the BEST episode you guys have put out and that’s saying something because every other episode has been FANTASTIC.
Loved this one! That is so cool! I was named after pierce Brosnans first wife Cassandra 😂
Matt, you are so smart! Thank you for sharing your passion and knowledge.👍😃
Wonderful point! We are all on the same page, that these issues are concerning, we want to come together to make these changes. This was a great interview! Thank you!
Please tell the Republicans in office about the "come together" part so something can actually get done for the people.
Omg yall were an hour away from me i would have fan girled had i met yall lol i am a nerd! I just adore yall
I'm a WHITE SHEEP 🐑 of the family also. Grew up ORTEGA. Mercy was I bullied in high school for not hanging with the correct crowd!!! Until my ORTEGA cousins drove down. ✌️ LOVED ❤ this episode. I could talk to Dani & her husband for hours. I'm happy for them both. Glad they're content in their roles.
Bridgit....is awesome. Learn from her!!! She is fabulous!!!!!
Omg the hand holding. You guys. Come one
That Diet Coke discussion just had my rolling🤣🤣🤣
GIRLS GONE BIBLE on the podcast!!! Please 😍 great opportunity
Eyyy I’m from FortWorth!!! Stars Fans unite.⭐️💚😂 I liked this episode.
Right?! I lived in Dallas for 3 years and San Antonio about the same. Now I'm about an hour North in Sherman! Ayyyeeeee!!!
My husband and I did the “pull out method” the whole 19 years were together -- we have a 18 yr old son tho 😂 lol but out of 19 years, we only have had 4 children! After our youngest son Romie Jack passed away from SIDS last October I had to get something. There was just no way I could go thru that again so I got the mirena. If has def made me more hormonal tho … me AND my husband have noticed that lol! If we hadn’t lost our son I wouldn’t have gotten it for the reason that I just don’t wanna be on birth control as far as like hormones and blood clots etc. My mom, aunt and cousin all got blood clots from two different methods. My mom was bad she actually almost died from it so birth control always just kinda scared me. Like-- I’m good lol. But I def wouldn’t have this mirena if I didn’t have to. Point is--19 years worth of sex (prob average amount) and only 4 pregnancies is pretty good! (imo)✌🏽
I cannot believe Matt has not watched the Step Up movies 😂😂
Bring on the Happy and Healthy Podcast with Jeanine and Kaleb Ward
We need to get the Crosby’s on here next.
Yall need dr amen on
As some who has teenagers who through the grind era early because when they start doing activities, sports, jobs etc. You'll need the time
You guys should interview Josh and Katie (aka Jatie Vlogs) 😁
I don't think they will
Oh, are they still friends with them?
ya'll need mariah and bill
It always makes me laugh how the US and the UK were running out of toilet paper during the pandemic and in Italy there was a lack of flour and other ingredients to make homemade pasta and pizza. If that isn't the best way to describe us as Italians, I don't know what It Is. I loved this episode btw❤️
Except for penne lisce. That was the only padta left cause no one likes it 😅😂
You guys should try to get jacqueline Woodwell on the podcast because she is going throught the whole unplanned pregnancy right now
Laura and Mark Beverlin as a podcast guest!
Anyone know where Dani’s sweater is from???
Pls have thatjewishfamily on your podcast!!!
It's time to clear something up: using 'protection' may lead to pregnancy. And while not intended, is not a surprise pregnancy.
When you put a cake in the oven, are you surprised when its done baking?
When you place seeds on the ground, are you surprised when a tree sprouts?
