As an American soccer prodigy who blazed a path once thought near impossible for a player from the States, Christian Pulisic is already the most influential American men’s soccer player in the country’s 250-year history.

What the introverted forward from Hershey, Pa., lacks in pizzazz, he’s made up for in performance: in 2018 he became the U.S. team’s youngest captain in the modern era, and he’s still the only American man to play in, and win, a Champions League final. But this summer he’ll face his biggest spotlight yet as the U.S. hosts the FIFA World Cup, alongside Canada and Mexico, for the first time in more than three decades.

As the face of Team USA, Pulisic will be everywhere. But he’ll also be carrying the weight of American impatience as soccer fans and pundits demand more. Read about Pulisic’s journey to soccer stardom and what he faces at the link in bio.

A celebrity founder isn’t enough to build a lasting beauty brand. @haileybieber knew that.

Rhode is a success because she’s taken her authentic obsession with skin care, grown an audience around it, and created products that tap into their aesthetic desires—the same desires she and Rhode continually stoke with the aspirational image of her life and the brand.

In Bieber’s own words, she’s “building a world,” rooted in formulation, innovation, packaging, and, most importantly, storytelling. Skin care is a true obsession of Bieber’s, she can talk your ear off about ingredients and the latest scientific advancements. But with Rhode, she wanted to keep things simple, developing the brand’s mantra of “one of everything really good.”

That focus paid off. Rhode has grown quickly, landing in Sephora and striking a deal with e.l.f. Beauty worth $1 billion, giving the brand the infrastructure to expand worldwide.
That success has earned Rhode a spot on TIME’s 100 most influential companies of the year.Read more of Bieber’s profile at the link in bio.

Alphabet is one of TIME’s most influential companies of the year, with CEO Sundar Pichai at the helm.

Pichai’s low-key style has led critics to underestimate him. While analysts called for his resignation, Pichai remained calm; he had been lying in wait for this moment for a decade. In 2016, he had declared Google would be an “AI-first company,” and began cultivating a series of projects—custom chips, Cloud, YouTube, and deep AI research—that seemed to have nothing to do with Google’s core search product.

All of these bets have paid off, and then some. Google DeepMind forged several key breakthroughs that catapulted Google’s Gemini model to the top of many capability leaderboards. Gemini now accounts for a quarter of AI traffic worldwide, up from 6% a year ago, according to Similarweb. Google has quietly introduced millions of people to AI through everyday products. All these successes mean the main criticism Pichai faces is no longer about his leadership, but rather whether Google has once again become too powerful for society’s good. Read more about Pichai’s leadership at the link in bio.

'The Handmaid’s Tale,' Hulu’s six-season TV adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s acclaimed 1985 novel, was an emblem of anti-Donald Trump resistance during his first presidential administration. As for what its sequel series, 'The Testaments,' loosely based on Atwood’s 2019 best-seller of the same name, will represent for audiences during Trump’s second term, “that’s not up to me,” the 86-year-old author tells TIME. “Readers and viewers will make up their own minds about what it represents.”

'The Testaments' TV show puts a YA spin on the young women’s sphere of this hyperpatriarchal society. Atwood discusses the show's themes of rebellion, what it says about tradwives, and more at the link in bio.

Who influencers your favorite influencers?

On the TIME100 Gala red carpet last month, @cyrusveyssi and @haleyybaylee had the same answer: their mothers. (Even if they don't totally understand what they do... relatable). 💝

Television has given us some of the wisest, wackiest, and most beloved mothers we've ever known.

From Marge Simpson to Moira Rose, these TV matriarchs brought varied and often hilarious approaches to parenting and life that still resonate with audiences today.

“That’s so morbid!”

In 2025, a longtime client of Ilana Grines, a therapist in Los Angeles, found out that his mother had terminal cancer. Grines gave him an assignment: Write down everything you want to tell her while you still can. The man took the idea back to his friends, who were appalled. He told them he was going to do it anyway.

When the two regrouped after his mom’s death, he was in tears. “He said to me, ‘I’m so thankful we did this, because I don't feel like there's anything left unsaid,’” says Grines. “We tend to operate under the idea that we have an infinite amount of time with our parents and that we can say whatever we want to them whenever, but the reality is that we don’t.”

That’s why Grines and other experts recommend seizing any opportunity—whether it’s Mother’s Day, her birthday, or a random Tuesday afternoon—to express the specific things you admire and appreciate about your mom. “Waiting to say these things is going to cost you something later,” she says. “It’s the best gift you can give yourself and your mom.” Here are just a few things you can say; find more at the link in bio.

'The Devil Wears Prada 2' is darker than its predecessor, and it actually makes it better. That’s according to TIME's film critic Stephanie Zacharek.

The landscape of magazines in particular is much rockier and more barren than it was in 2006, the year ‘The Devil Wears Prada,’ a picture that mercilessly mocked Wintour and her ilk, was released. The sequel shows the print industry for what it is: in turmoil. Here is what we liked about it and what surprised us about the characters' fashion choices.
