We had the opportunity to welcome back our friend, Kierre Bjorn Lindsay, as he led us this weekend.

Revival Mom | Grow Deeper with God, Encourage children in the Lord, Christian Home
As Christian moms, we feel the weight of sending our kids into the world—whether that's homeschooling, private school, Christian school, or public school. And with a new school year beginning, our mama hearts can easily slip into fear about what they might face: bullying, harmful ideologies, peer pressure, or simply the unknown. But here's the truth: we don't parent in fear—we parent in faith. We have authority through Jesus, and God has promised us His angel armies encamped around our children. He is their first and ultimate Protector. In this episode of the Revival Mom Podcast, I share a raw story from my own motherhood journey that reminded me how deeply I long to keep my kids safe. Then, we dig into powerful scripture-based prayers that you can declare over your children as they start the school year. We talk about: Why revival in the home begins with moms standing on God's truth. How to cover your children in prayer no matter what type of school they're in. Scriptural promises of angelic protection (Psalm 34:7, Psalm 91:11, 2 Kings 6:16-17, and more). How to guard their minds, hearts, friendships, identity, and hunger for God. The difference between protecting them physically and spiritually. You'll walk away equipped to pray bold, faith-filled prayers over your children—and to trust God as their ultimate Defender. This isn't about fear. This is about raising up a generation of kingdom warriors who walk in victory because their moms chose to stand on God's promises. So grab your coffee, take a deep breath, and join me as we step into this school year with courage, faith, and the assurance that those who are with us are greater than those who are against us.

Every August, we make “school year resolutions”—we're going to give better feedback, protect our time, stop doing so much. But most of those resolutions fall apart by September, not because we're undisciplined, but because we made them in a vacuum.

If you want this year's goals to actually stick, don't make another resolution. Build a 100% Vision #LikeABuilder.
In this episode, we're talking about more than just back-to-school shopping and fresh notebooks, we're talking about how to set our kids up for a successful school year and how to set ourselves up for one too. Because if you're a mom like me, you know the school year is as much about resetting our rhythms, protecting our mental health, and staying grounded as it is about helping our kids thrive.We'll explore: • Practical ways to set the emotional tone at home so our kids leave the house feeling calm, supported, and confident • Why rhythms matter more than rigid schedules (and how to create them for both kids and parents) • Managing the invisible mental load so a “successful school year” for them doesn't equal burnout for us • How modeling emotional regulation can help our kids develop lifelong coping skillsYou'll also learn how to use the science of neuroplasticity to rewire your brain in a realistic, sustainable way, no toxic positivity here or emotional bypassing and why this work is more like strength training than instant change.Finally, we'll flip the script and talk about what Gen Z and Gen Alpha can teach us about empathy, boundaries, and emotional intelligence, and why they may be modeling skills we all need to embrace.This episode blends practical tips, mindset science, and a little heart-to-heart to help you start the school year feeling calm, connected, and ready.Rewire Your Thoughts:: Using Affirmations to Build Confidence, Relieve Stress, and Manifest Abundance - https://www.amazon.com/Rewire-Your-Thoughts-Affirmations-Confidence/dp/B0DKCY4L24/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1JEQY2J1NNMKC&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.OkdSKNT19dbvy3qIlZ2tYhehaaVcMaYbmwNj5Ak6OOM.NfZW32BIbzTpST1GEFBx_yJomVtK4gSvbr69GUH9HKw&dib_tag=se&keywords=Nikki+Lanigan+Rewire+Your+Thoughts&qid=1755287581&sprefix=nikki+lanigan+rewire+your+thoughts%2Caps%2C231&sr=8-1Special Offers & SponsorsMantra Match – 10% off with code NIKKIWELLNESS: https://mantramatcha.com/Neeshi Protein Powder – 20% off your first order with code NIKKIYOGA20: www.neeshi.com*** This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.Find Nikki online at:www.instagram.com/fitfunandfrazzledpodcastwww.instagram.com/elevate_and_align_
Our 50th episode of QuidelOrtho Science Bytes features Dr. Jonathan Temte, a leading public health expert, discussing how schools, families, and healthcare providers can stay ahead of respiratory illnesses this school year. As students return to classrooms, familiar viruses like flu, RSV, and COVID-19 often resurge. Dr. Temte explains why symptoms alone can't reliably distinguish between these illnesses and how rapid diagnostics are essential for early detection, accurate treatment, and preventing further spread. About Our Speaker: Dr. Temte joined the Department of Family Medicine and Community Health faculty at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1993. He is a professor of family medicine and community health and the Associate Dean for Public Health and Community Engagement for the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health. Dr. Temte received his BA from Luther College, an MS in Biological Oceanography from Oregon State University, and his PhD in Zoology and Minor in Epidemiology from the University of Wisconsin. He pursued his medical training at the University of Wisconsin Medical School, where he received his MD. Dr. Temte also served as the Director of the Wisconsin Research and Education Network from 2000 to 2005. He chaired the American Academy of Family Physicians Commission on Science in 2008, the AAFP, and he currently chairs the Wisconsin Council on Immunization Practices. He also served as AAFP liaison to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices from 2004 to 2008, where he was appointed a voting member from 2008 to 2015 and served as chair from 2012 to 2015.
