It stars Ryan Gosling, who also produced the film, as Ryland Grace, and Sandra Hüller, James Ortiz, and Lionel Boyce play supporting roles. The story follows Ryland Grace, a middle school teacher who awakens aboard an interstellar spacecraft with no memory of how he got there. Pre-production began in 2020, before Weir's novel was published. Filming took place throughout 2024 in the United Kingdom, both on location and on sets. All scenes aboard the spacecraft Hail Mary were filmed on a practical set that was constructed for the film. Project Hail Mary premiered in London on March 9, 2026, and was released in the United States by Amazon MGM Studios on March 20, with Sony Pictures Releasing International releasing in other territories. It received positive reviews, with praise for Lord and Miller's direction, Gosling's performance, the character of Rocky, as well as the humor, themes and visuals. It was a commercial success, grossing over $685 million worldwide and becoming the seventh-highest-grossing film of 2026. Plot In the near future, middle school teacher and former molecular biologist Ryland Grace wakes up from an induced coma on the interstellar spacecraft Hail Mary, suffering from amnesia. Grace learns that he is the sole survivor of a three-person crew that was traveling towards the Tau Ceti system, 11.9 light-years from Earth. In a series of flashbacks, Grace recalls that scientists discovered a "Petrova line" of infrared light stretching from the Sun to Venus; an alien microbe in the line, dubbed "astrophage", was proliferating on the Sun's surface, dimming the Sun at a rate that would cause catastrophic global cooling within thirty years. The head of the Petrova Taskforce, Eva Stratt, recruited Grace to study it due to his background in speculative astrobiology. Grace experimented on a sample and discovered that astrophage was composed of unicellular organisms that absorb electromagnetic radiation from the Sun and expel it for propulsion. Grace joined Stratt's Project Hail Mary, an international "long-shot" mission to send a crewed spacecraft to Tau Ceti, the only star in Earth's solar neighborhood not occluded by astrophage. The flight to Tau Ceti would be a suicide mission, as the ship could only carry enough fuel for a one-way trip; any findings would have to return to Earth in smaller space probes. In the present, Grace encounters an alien spacecraft that docks with the Hail Mary. It is made of a solid form of xenon, which Grace dubs "xenonite". The ship's occupant is a rock-like, five-legged alien from Erid, a planet in the 40 Eridani A system. Grace names the alien "Rocky", deduces that Eridians "see" via echolocation, and creates a machine translation system to interpret Rocky's musical language into English. Rocky is a mechanical engineer and the sole survivor of the Eridians' mission to save their own star from astrophage infection. Grace and Rocky agree to work together, and become close friends. As neither can survive in the other's atmosphere, Rocky works aboard the Hail Mary inside a pressurized ball of xenonite. Grace and Rocky study the Petrova line of the planet Tau Ceti e, which Grace names "Adrian",{{cite web |url=https://www.techradar.com/streaming/entertainment/project-hail-mary-ending-explained |title=''Project Hail Mary'' Ending Explained: What happens to Ryland Grace and Rocky, will there be a sequel, and more on Ryan Gosling's new sci-fi movie |last=Power |first=Tom |website=[[TechRadar]] |date=March 20, 2026 |access-date=May 26, 2026 |archive-date=March 21, 2026 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20260321104440/https://www.techradar.com/streaming/entertainment/project-hail-mary-ending-explained |url-status=live}}"}},"i":0}}]}">[a] and discovers that the line hosts an entire microbial biosphere. Rocky theorizes that microbial organisms in Adrian's atmosphere are consuming the astrophage, keeping the population in check. Learning that Grace cannot return home, Rocky offers to share some of his own ship's astrophage fuel with the Hail Mary. Grace remembers that an astrophage explosion killed the original crew's science officers. With no time to train replacements, Stratt asked Grace to join the mission. During a risky maneuver to gather the astrophage predator from Adrian's atmosphere, a fuel leak causes the Hail Mary to spin uncontrollably, rendering Grace unconscious. Rocky breaks out of his ball to save Grace but is severely injured. While Rocky recovers, Grace studies the captured astrophage predator, dubbing it "taumoeba"[b] and selectively breeding it to survive the nitrogen in Venus's atmosphere. Rocky revives, and the two celebrate their success; Grace recalls that he fearfully refused to join the Hail Mary crew, but Stratt had him drugged and put aboard the ship anyway, believing he was the only one capable of completing the mission. Rocky and Grace say their goodbyes and begin their journeys back home. Shortly thereafter, Grace discovers that the taumoeba has evolved to escape its xenonite breeding tanks and is starting to consume Hail Mary's astrophage fuel. Grace stops the taumoeba leak, but realizes that Rocky's ship, being entirely made of xenonite, will have no way to contain the taumoeba; it will eat all of Rocky's fuel, stranding him and dooming Erid. Grace decides to use his remaining fuel to rescue Rocky and the Eridians rather than return home, and sends his video logs and taumoeba samples to Earth via the probes. Stratt and her team receive the probes and use the taumoeba to cure the Sun's astrophage infection. Meanwhile, on Erid, Grace lives in an Earth-like biodome the Eridians have constructed for him. Rocky informs him that Eridian scientists can prepare the Hail Mary for the return voyage to Earth. Grace ponders the news before beginning another day of teaching science to eager Eridian children. Cast Ryan Gosling, who portrays Dr. Ryland Grace, also served as a producer on the film Ryan Gosling as Ryland Grace, a middle school science teacher and former molecular biologist on a mission to save humanity[7] Sandra Hüller as Eva Stratt, the head of the international task force behind Project Hail Mary[8] James Ortiz as Rocky, an alien Grace encounters on his journey.[9] The character was effected through a puppet controlled by a team of five puppeteers led by Ortiz, dubbed the "Rockyteers", with Ortiz also providing the artificial voice assigned to him[10] Ortiz also has an uncredited role as a television presenter[11] Lionel Boyce as Carl, a member of security personnel Ken Leung as Yao Li-Jie, the Chinese commander of the Hail Mary spacecraft Milana Vayntrub as Olesya Ilyukhina, a Russian engineer on board the Hail Mary Priya Kansara as the voice of Mary, the Hail Mary's onboard computer[9] Malachi Kirby as Martin Dubois, the original scientist of the Hail Mary[12] Liz Kingsman as Annie Shapiro, a backup scientist of the Hail Mary Mia Soteriou as Dr. Browne Orion Lee as Dr. Li Michelle Greenidge as Chimamanda Additionally, Eunice Huthart (the film's stunt coordinator), Damien de Froberville (co-president of Sony Pictures Animation), Ray Porter (the audiobook narrator), and Meryl Streep provided the rejected alternative voices for Rocky.[13][14] Production Development In March 2020, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer was nearing a deal to acquire adaptation rights to the then-upcoming Andy Weir novel Project Hail Mary (2021), with Ryan Gosling set to star in and produce the film.[7] The rights for the novel were acquired for $3 million.[15] In May 2020, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller were hired to direct and produce the film.[16] Due to Lord and Miller being unable to work on the screenplay because of commitments to Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023), Drew Goddard (who previously adapted Weir's 2011 novel The Martian into a 2015 film) was hired the following month to write the screenplay.[17][18] In April 2024, Amazon, which acquired Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer in 2022,[19] revealed a possible 2026 release window for the film.[20] In May 2024, Sandra Hüller joined the cast, with Greig Fraser hired as cinematographer.[8] Milana Vayntrub joined the cast the following month.[21] Filming The film's crew, actors Ryan Gosling and Sandra Hüller, writer Drew Goddard, author/producer Andy Weir, and directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller visiting NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory on February 25, 2026 Principal photography began on June 3, 2024, in the United Kingdom and wrapped on October 26, 2024.[22][23] Filming took place at Shepperton Studios.[24] Location filming occurred at The Hemel Hempstead School, the South Parade Pier in Portsmouth,[25] the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory in Cambridge,[26] and Durdle Door and Man o' War Cove in Dorset.[27][28][29] The film was "filmed for IMAX" by using large-sensor Arri Alexa 65 cameras, which provide 6.5K (20 MP) of resolution, with an aspect ratio of 2.1:1,[30] utilizing the whole sensor with anamorphic lenses rotated by 90 degrees to achieve the IMAX standard 1.43:1 aspect ratio. For regular presentations, the common 2:1 format (Univisium) was derived by cropping the top and bottom of the IMAX image. The film switches between taller and wider aspect ratios. When a scene takes place in the present, a taller aspect ratio is used—1.43:1 for IMAX 15/70 mm or Dual Laser, 1.85:1 for Xenon or Single Laser, and 2.00:1 for non-IMAX presentations. For scenes in the past, an aspect ratio of 2.39:1, a standard ratio for anamorphic process cinematography, was achieved with the regular use of anamorphic lenses.[31] In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Miller mentioned that no chroma keying was used in the film, with the entire set being shot practically.[32] Fraser had previously collaborated with visual effects supervisor Paul Lambert on the Dune films; their disdain for green and blue screens, which impacts lighting and visuals through color spill, led them to use blackouts and grey screens on the film instead.[33] Miller had previously stated that VFX was used to depict the spaceship from the outside, while shots of Gosling in space were shot against a black or varying color backdrop.[34] NASA provided support through both the input of scientific experts and astronaut Kjell N. Lindgren visiting Gosling during filming to share insights on human spaceflight.[35] Post-production The visual effects were developed by Framestore (which also collaborated on the film adaptation of The Martian),[36] Industrial Light & Magic (ILM), Sony Pictures Imageworks, BUF and Wylie Co. VFX, with Mags Sarnowska serving as visual effects supervisor alongside Lambert.[37] While puppeteer Ortiz voiced Rocky during filming with Gosling, it was initially thought that a more high-profile actor would replace him. However, Lord and Miller felt that Ortiz's performance could not be improved upon during screenings of the film.[38] Lord praised the collaboration between practical and visual effects in the creation of the character Rocky's performance: Rocky was built and designed by the legendary Neal Scanlan and his creature shop and is performed by puppeteering legend James Ortiz and his team, who were on set with Ryan in every scene. Rocky's performance is a beautiful collaboration between James and the other Rockyteers on set and the wonderful animators at Framestore led by the funny soulful Arslan Elver.[39] Miller noted that by the end of the film shots with Rocky were about 50% VFX animation and 50% puppetry.[40] The digitally shot and produced film was transferred to film stock and then re-digitized to achieve the "warmth" of analog film.[31] The initial test screening of the film was 3 hours and 45 minutes long, and was cut down to the final length due to feedback from the screenings.[41] Joel Negron served as film editor.[42] Music Main article: Project Hail Mary (soundtrack) It was announced at San Diego Comic-Con that Daniel Pemberton would score the film. Pemberton worked with Lord and Miller on Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) and its 2023 sequel, which they produced. This is the first film directed by Lord and Miller to not be scored by Mark Mothersbaugh.[43] The score, consisting of 38 tracks, was released digitally on March 20, 2026.[44] The film also includes fourteen other songs, including "Sign of the Times" by Harry Styles, "Two of Us" by the Beatles, "Rainbows" by Dennis Wilson and "Gracias a la vida" sung by Mercedes Sosa.[45] Marketing The film's title on the marquee of Moreland Theater in Portland, Oregon in March 2026 The first trailer was released on June 30, 2025.[46] It was the most-viewed trailer for any original film in the first week of its release, accumulating 400 million views globally.[47] Lego released a model of the Hail Mary spacecraft on March 1, 2026, as part of the Lego Icons series.[48] Release Theatrical Project Hail Mary was released on March 20, 2026, in 4,007 theaters by Amazon MGM Studios in the United States and Canada, and Sony Pictures Releasing International in all other territories.[5] It was also released in select IMAX theaters, with a 1.43:1 aspect ratio.{{cite web |last=D'Alessandro |first=Anthony |title=Ryan Gosling, Lord & Miller Amazon MGM Studios Space Adventure ''Project Hail Mary'' Sets Launch for Spring 2026 |date=April 18, 2024 |website=[[Deadline Hollywood]] |url=https://deadline.com/2024/04/ryan-gosling-project-hail-mary-release-date-1235889844/ |access-date=April 18, 2024 |archive-date=April 19, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240419002823/https://deadline.com/2024/04/ryan-gosling-project-hail-mary-release-date-1235889844/ |url-status=live}}{{cite web |last=D'Alessandro |first=Anthony |title=Amazon MGM Studios & Sony Pictures Ink Multi-Year International Theatrical Distribution Deal |date=June 27, 2025 |website=[[Deadline Hollywood]] |url=https://deadline.com/2025/06/amazon-mgm-studios-sony-international-distribution-1236444141/ |access-date=July 1, 2025 |archive-date=June 27, 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250627130223/https://deadline.com/2025/06/amazon-mgm-studios-sony-international-distribution-1236444141/ |url-status=live}}{{cite web |last=Gray |first=Jeremy |date=June 30, 2025 |title=''Project Hail Mary'' Film Adaptation Looks Like a Visual Feast |url=https://petapixel.com/2025/06/30/project-hail-mary-film-adaptation-looks-like-a-visual-feast/ |access-date=July 1, 2025 |website=[[PetaPixel]] |archive-date=July 12, 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250712225014/https://petapixel.com/2025/06/30/project-hail-mary-film-adaptation-looks-like-a-visual-feast/ |url-status=live |language=en-US}}{{cite web |last=Kim |first=Anny |date=December 16, 2025 |title=Everything to know about ''Project Hail Mary'', coming soon from Amazon MGM Studios |url=https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/entertainment/project-hail-mary-ryan-gosling-amazon-mgm-studios |access-date=December 31, 2025 |publisher=About Amazon |language=en-US}}"}},"i":0}}]}">[c] Home media The film was released on digital streaming platforms on May 12, 2026.[53] It began streaming on the MGM+ subscription streaming service and Prime Video on June 18 and July 3, respectively.[54][55][56] It was also released on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray, and DVD on August 11, 2026, by Alliance Entertainment.[57] Following the standard disc release will be an Amazon exclusive three-disc SteelBook gift set, scheduled for October 13.[57] It will include a third disc with the film in its full 1.43:1 IMAX ratio, plus additional bonus material and a collectible booklet.[citation needed] Reception Box office As of September 11, 2026 Project Hail Mary has grossed $344.1 million in the United States and Canada, and $341.2 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $685.3 million.[4][5] In the United States and Canada, Project Hail Mary was released on March 20, 2026, and was projected to gross $63–65 million in North America from 4,007 theaters in its opening weekend.[58] Initially, publications estimated that the film would gross $45–55 million.[59] After grossing $31 million on opening day, including $12 million in previews, the film debuted to $80.6 million in the United States and Canada,[60] and $60.4 million overseas for a worldwide total of $141 million,[61] becoming Amazon MGM Studios' biggest debut to date.[60] In its second weekend, the film made $54.1 million (a drop of 32.8%), remaining in first.[62] It was surpassed by The Super Mario Galaxy Movie in its third weekend, grossing $31.7 million.[63] In Japan, the film became the highest-grossing foreign film of 2026 in terms of box office revenue attendance on its first day of release.[64] Critical response The performances of Ryan Gosling, Sandra Hüller, and James Ortiz were praised by critics On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 95% of 430 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 8.2/10. The website's consensus reads: "A visually dazzling space odyssey that's carried along effortlessly by the gravitational pull of Ryan Gosling at his most winning, Project Hail Mary is a near-miraculous fusion of smarts and heart."[65] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 77 out of 100, based on 60 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews.[66] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an "A" on an A+ to F scale.[67] The film received an average rating of 8 out of 10 from Cine21.[68] G. Allen Johnson of the San Francisco Chronicle deemed it "a masterpiece of a family popcorn movie, with eye-popping hand-crafted production design and outstanding creature design and puppetry work."[69] Randy Myers of The Mercury News gave the film a 3.5/4 rating, writing: "While you can't help but marvel at the visuals and applaud the commitment of Gosling's endearing performance, what also makes Project Hail Mary so gosh darn lovable is that it imbues us with child-like wonder from scenes that pay homage to such classics as E.T., Flight of the Navigator and, yes, Rocky."[70] Cosplay of Ryland Grace with a fan-created Rocky prop at NärCon 2026 Robbie Collin of The Telegraph concluded in his review: "Does it have many original ideas of its own? Perhaps not. But its greatest hits mixtape of other people's has been compiled with such flair – as well as a sound comprehension of why they worked so well the first time – that it's hard not to be swept up regardless."[71] Barry Hertz of The Globe and Mail shared a similar opinion, writing: "At almost every turn, Project Hail Mary attempts to convince you that it is groundbreaking, innovative filmmaking. But in actuality, the movie lands as a grand act of cinematic recycling – the fusing together of familiar, comforting bits and pieces into something determined to please crowds and warm hearts."[72] Amy Nicholson of the Los Angeles Times wrote: "While Stanley Kubrick's unsentimental 2001: A Space Odyssey inspired the iPad, Lord and Miller want to inspire a better version of us."[73] Brian Truitt of USA Today gave the film a four out of four rating, writing that "Project Hail Mary is one of those old-school popcorn movies with big ideas, the kind of film that Steven Spielberg and George Lucas would have made back in the day and kids of all ages would have obsessed over and bought the toys."[74] Ryan Cooper of The American Prospect wrote that the film portrayed a "shockingly realistic view of heroism" and was "one of the rare films that is quite a bit better than the book".[75] Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian wrote: "Gosling is an effortlessly charming screen player, and he keeps it watchable, though the film itself has moments of dullness and a sort of puppyish silliness [...] Perhaps refreshingly, the film doesn't aim for the stunned awe and rapture of, say, Christopher Nolan's Interstellar or even Jon Spaihts' underrated Passengers, but it does have the classic sci-fi spacecraft tropes: the huge, mysterious architecture with its vertiginous tunnels in which legacy pop music is played to soothe the inhabitants."[76] GVSU anthropology professor Deana L. Weibel praised Grace's intellectual humility in the film.[77] Nicholas Barber of the BBC declared it one of the best films of 2026, writing: Project Hail Mary is an unusual science-fiction blockbuster in that it's mostly about people using their brains to solve problems [...] Does that approach sound a bit dry and academic? If so, rest assured that Project Hail Mary is touching and inspiring – and surprisingly fun [...] it's directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, who take a complicated, potentially bleak narrative and make it as fast-paced and cheerful as their animated hit The Lego Movie. Meanwhile, Ryan Gosling brings all of his goofball charm to the role of an amnesiac biologist who is trying to save the world.[78] Conversely, Owen Gleiberman of Variety called it "not a very good movie", adding that "it's baggy and incredibly derivative of movies you've seen before [...] More crucially, everything to do with the onboard alien is far too cute and formulaic".[79]

Why do our best intentions so often backfire in communication? You enter a meeting with a positive goal, yet leave colleagues feeling micromanaged, disempowered, or completely misunderstood. In this episode from the archive, Andy Lopata has a conversation with leadership coach and author Catherine Stothart (How to Get On with Anyone). Catherine breaks down why personality models shouldn't be used for clumsy conversational tricks, but to bridge the "influence gap" between our intentions and our actual impact. From the everyday friction between "Directing" and "Informing" communication habits to the four core interaction styles—Mobiliser, Energiser, Navigator, and Synthesiser—Catherine reveals how teams at companies like Airbus and Google navigate interpersonal differences. Discover how understanding your instinctive behavioural drivers can immediately reduce workplace tension, prevent unnecessary conflict, and build deeper, more authentic professional relationships. What You Will Learn In This Episode: The Influence Gap: Why positive intentions often lead to negative reactions, and how to consciously align your impact with your intent. Directing vs. Informing: The subtle phrasing difference in how you ask questions that makes others feel either clear or manipulated. The 4 Interaction Archetypes: How Mobilisers, Energisers, Navigators, and Synthesisers operate—and why putting them in a room together without self-awareness causes instant friction.  Actionable Insights: Identify and Flex Your Communication Style (Directing vs. Informing): Recognise whether you instinctively give instructions directly ("Please have this done by 2:00") or provide context hoping others take the hint ("How long will that task take you?"). When speaking to direct communicators, be clear and explicit; when speaking to informing communicators, provide information and allow them the autonomy to determine their action. Set Clear Check-In Agreements When Delegating: If you have an action-oriented "Mobiliser" drive, resist the urge to chase people down 30 minutes after assigning a task. Agree on a specific completion time or update milestones upfront, and do not follow up until that agreed-upon moment arrives. Design Meetings for Multiple Processing Styles: Recognise that extroverted styles (Mobilisers/Energisers) want to talk through ideas immediately, while introverted styles (Navigators/Synthesisers) need space to analyse data and consult. Send agendas in advance to give reflective thinkers time to process, ensuring you get the best contributions from the whole team.

A company's true value isn't locked in a spreadsheet; it is built or destroyed at the intersection of strategy, leadership, and execution. On this episode of Behind the Numbers, host Dave Bookbinder sits down with Jay Weiser, founder of Jay Weiser Consulting, to unpack what it truly means to build a future fit organization. Together, they examine how hidden structural drag and subtle misalignments between strategy, organizational capability, and operations quietly erode enterprise worth long before the damage hits the balance sheet. Jay shares actionable insights for navigating market disruption, detailing his Five Leadership Superpowers framework: present futurist, experienced learner, accountable collaborator, prepared risk-taker, and strategic executor. He highlights why human capital must be treated as a core business driver, emphasizing the strategic alignment needed between the Board, CEO, and CHRO, while offering private equity investors tools to stress-test assumptions in a non-linear world. Listeners walk away with practical strategies to sense market signals early, make faster decisions under uncertainty, and eliminate executive friction. Jay also outlines three diagnostic questions leaders can use immediately to uncover hidden capability gaps, align team execution with long-term strategy, and safeguard enterprise value. Equip your leadership team with the vision and execution capabilities required to build an organization that thrives through disruption. About Our Guest: Jay R.

"Work expands to fill the time available." That's Parkinson's Law, and it's the reason most real estate agents can't protect a single hour on their calendar — not their quiet time, not date night, not even a three-hour mastermind. In this episode, national time management coach Anna Dearmon Kornick breaks down why your calendar isn't the problem, your clarity is.Anna walks Garrett, Cole, and the listener through a simple exercise: imagine standing a year from now, fully proud of what you've built — then work backward to identify what had to be true to get there. That vision, paired with a short list of personal core values, becomes a filter for every time-management decision an agent makes going forward. Garrett connects this directly to his own coaching philosophy around defining a personal scoreboard for success before choosing a lead-generation strategy or building a team — a theme that runs throughout his work with faith-based realtors and Christian entrepreneurs building referral-based real estate businesses.From there, Anna unpacks her signature HEART method — a four-phase system she teaches inside the It's About Time Academy:Navigator — learning to navigate overwhelm using your own personality as a compass, since time management strategies that work for one person's wiring can fail completely for another's.Visionary — getting concrete about your vision and core values, then using both as a filter for daily priorities.Designer — building five essential routines (morning, evening, workday startup, workday shutdown, and weekly planning) that anchor a "best week ever," including a practical breakdown of what a workday shutdown routine should actually accomplish (process, preview, prepare) so your brain can close the day's open loops instead of carrying them home.Pacesetter — using the HEART framework itself (Habits, Energy, Attention, Recharge, Time) as an ongoing diagnostic toolbox whenever friction shows up in your week.Anna also shares her own story — from scheduling a U.S. congressman on Capitol Hill, to a decade in 24/7 crisis communications, to being written up for tardiness 17 times in a single quarter — and how that season taught her that chronic lateness wasn't a discipline problem, it was a symptom of living out of alignment with her values and vision. That personal turning point is what led her to build the HEART method and the It's About Time Academy.The conversation lands on a theme that will resonate with any real estate agent trying to build sustainable habits: recharge isn't optional. Sleep, hobbies, and unstructured fun aren't indulgences — they're what keeps an agent in the business long enough to build something that lasts. Garrett and Cole talk candidly about their own struggles protecting time for rest, and Anna reframes time management not as a race to be won, but as an ongoing practice — more like yoga than a finish line.Key TakeawaysParkinson's Law is why agents burn out. Work expands to fill the time available — if you don't decide in advance how much lead generation, reach-outs, or work is "enough," you'll throw yourself into it indefinitely with no finish line.Time management is a decision-making problem, not a scheduling problem. Every choice about how you spend your time is really a question: does this move me toward my vision and values, or away from them?Clarity comes before tools. Buying a new planner, app, or habit tracker won't fix time management — sitting still and getting clear on your vision and values will.There is no one-size-fits-all time management system. Most time management books reflect the personality of the person who wrote them — understanding your own wiring (the "Navigator" phase) is the shortcut to finding what actually works for you.Five routines anchor a sustainable week: morning, evening, workday startup, workday shutdown, and weekly planning.A workday shutdown routine has three steps: process what happened today, preview tomorrow's calendar, and prepare one small thing for success — then pair it with a physical cue (closing a laptop, changing clothes, even tapping a tree) to signal to your brain that work mode is over.Deadlines aren't the enemy — they're the tool. A short amount of time forces tough decisions about what stays and what goes; putting a limit on your work keeps it from expanding into every part of your day.Recharge is not optional. Adults need 7–9 hours of sleep, and hobbies or unstructured fun aren't indulgent — they're what makes long-term sustainability in real estate possible.The HEART framework is a diagnostic toolbox: Habits, Energy, Attention, Recharge, Time — when something in your week feels off, ask which of these five needs attention.Time management is a practice, not a finish line. Like yoga, it's something you show up to and adjust daily — not a system you master once and set on autopilot.One Practical StepBefore you open your inbox tomorrow morning, open your calendar first. Identify your top three priorities for the day — the three things that would actually move the needle — and time-block them before you check a single email or text. Let everything else get measured against those three, instead of starting your day reacting to whatever landed in your inbox overnight.Connect with AnnaPodcast: It's About Time — new episodes every Monday, wherever you listen to podcastsBook: Time Management Essentials - https://www.amazon.com/Time-Management-Essentials-Attention-Productivity/dp/126498877XInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/annadkornick/Need help winning at work without losing at life?

In 1967, breast surgeon Dr. Harold P. Freeman arrived at Harlem Hospital expecting to treat cancer. Instead, he confronted a healthcare system where poverty, racism, lack of insurance, and institutional barriers often determined who lived long enough to receive treatment. Patients frequently arrived with advanced disease, not because medicine lacked answers, but because access to care had failed them.This episode explores how cancer survivorship expanded beyond medical breakthroughs to include healthcare access, health equity, and organized advocacy. Building on the early work of the National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship (NCCS), it examines the recognition that surviving cancer depended not only on research, but also on whether patients could navigate a fragmented healthcare system.Freeman responded by creating one of the nation's first patient navigation programs at Harlem Hospital in 1990. Community-based navigators helped patients overcome practical barriers including insurance, transportation, appointments, communication, and fear. The model dramatically improved timely diagnosis and treatment, increased breast cancer survival in Harlem, and ultimately inspired the Patient Navigator Outreach and Chronic Disease Prevention Act of 2005, establishing navigation as a cornerstone of modern oncology care.The episode also follows cancer survivor Ellen Stovall, whose leadership transformed survivorship into a national policy movement. Through the NCCS, she united advocates across cancer types, fought for insurance protections, expanded access to clinical trials, helped shape the creation of the Office of Cancer Survivorship at the National Cancer Institute, and organized the landmark 1998 National March for Cancer Survivorship in Washington, D.C. Her work reframed survivorship as a public policy issue rather than a personal experience.Together, Freeman and Stovall demonstrated that scientific progress alone could not eliminate disparities in cancer outcomes. Their work established two enduring principles that continue to shape oncology today: patients need someone to help them navigate care, and survivors must have a voice in the policies that govern it. Modern cancer survivorship depends on both.RELATED LINKSNational Coalition for Cancer Survivorship⁠Harold P.

Flight of the Navigator at 40: why this 1986 sci-fi charm still works Todd Hoffman flies solo in this episode of WSTR Galactic Public Access to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Flight of the Navigator. He breaks down the movie's plot, its 80s atmosphere, and why its mix of family drama, time travel, and alien weirdness still makes it a standout. "Flight of the Navigator may be about aliens, time travel, and flying saucers, but at the heart, it's about a kid trying to find his way home." Key topics Todd frames Flight of the Navigator as quintessential 1986 sci-fi: kid-led, practical, charming, and just spooky enough. He walks through the plot: David Freeman disappears in 1978, wakes up eight years later unchanged, and gets pulled into a government and alien mystery. He highlights the film's emotional core, especially the grief and consequences his family faces during David's absence. He talks about Max as the real star of the movie, including the ship's shape-shifting design and the robotic personality voiced by Paul Reubens. He praises the movie's practical effects, puppets, and early CGI for giving the film a tactile, memorable feel. He compares the movie's child wonder and pacing to other 80s favorites like E.T., The Goonies, and The Last Starfighter. He argues that kids' sci-fi movies worked so well in the 80s because they trusted slower buildup, imaginative premises, and relatable young protagonists. He says the film's biggest strength is that it is ultimately about a kid trying to find his way home. In News of the Week, Todd covers Star Wars Zero Company, a Marvel and Star Wars crossover comic, and rumors around Star Wars: Starfighter. In Cantina chat, he shares personal updates about storms in Illinois, Carla's upcoming wedding, a family trip to Pigeon Forge and Dollywood, and plans for Fan Expo Chicago.

When closed-end funds catch mentions in the mainstream media, the recommendations often focus on yield without digging deeper. In this episode of The NAVigator, John Cole Scott, President of CEF Advisors, looks at some recent closed-end fund recommendations from articles on Forbes and Seeking Alpha, and breaks down how those funds do through the "trifecta analysis" his firm uses to select funds, pointing out the shortcomings of using a rigid criteria or focusing on partial information to make decisions. Scott, who also is the chairman of the Active Investment Company Alliance, offers suggestions for what he would use in portfolios in place of the media recommendations.

Trying to find the right kind of help can feel harder than the problem you are trying to solve. That's why Lindsay and Bruce brought in Sara Harrison Mills, CEO of Syntero, along with the City of Dublin's Molly Steiner, to talk about how we're making wellness easier to access and simpler to navigate.We unpack the new Community Wellness Navigator developed through the Dublin Wellness Alliance, including what the navigator can help with: finding doctors and dentists, understanding insurance enrollment, connecting to prescription assistance programs, locating food assistance, and overcoming barriers like transportation. We also share how to reach the navigator, including in-person hours at the Dublin Community Recreation Center, plus phone and email options, so residents have a clear starting point instead of a maze of referrals.From there, we zoom out to what community wellness really takes: strong partnerships, shared priorities, and support that shows up where people already are. Sara explains how Syntero's continuum of care spans prevention, early intervention, treatment, and recovery.  Plus, how an embedded mental health clinician works alongside local police and fire teams to connect individuals and families to services after a call. We also talk candidly about rising stress, anxiety, depression, access to care challenges, and why the shift toward open mental health conversations matters.We wrap with a rapid-fire round on self-care and the small resets that actually help: from mindful pauses to replacing doomscrolling with learning. If you find this helpful, subscribe, share with a neighbor, and leave a review so more people can find the support they need.

It's episode 503 and commissioner Shane — fantasy baseball champion, Jump Rope for Heart hero, and listener since episode four — finally gets his pick: Pixar's 2006 animated comedy Cars. Dick watched it with his daughter, Emma. Gene watched it for the first time, still unclear why so many Walmart shoppers wear Lightning McQueen Crocs. What follows is a full breakdown of the film — the stunning opening race sequence, the surprisingly rich world-building, the Route 66 economic collapse that hit harder than expected, and the central flaw neither host could ignore: Lightning McQueen is the least interesting car in his own movie. Also on the docket: Did Pixar accidentally make a pro-walkable-city film? Can Cars die of natural causes? What happened to Stanley? Mötley Crüe was offered a song in this movie. They said no. Disney went with Rascal Flatts. We're still angry. The Escalade vs. Navigator distinction that you will not hear anywhere else. Dick's Pixar top 10, Gene's complicated feelings about Up, and a debate on whether WALL-E is a zero-wipe perfect film.

In this episode of Breaking Down Barriers, David sits down with Marci Goodwin, co-founder of SmartStart Business Development and creator of the SmartStart Navigator, to talk about the "hidden entrepreneurs" quietly reshaping small-town economies across the country.Marci shares how a SaaS platform originally built for high-growth tech startups found its real audience in microbusinesses—the makers, side-hustlers, and mom-and-pop owners who make up the vast majority of U.S. businesses but rarely walk through the doors of an SBDC or chamber of commerce. She and David dig into why these owner-operated businesses (fewer than 10 employees, many with just one) are the true engine of local economic activity, especially as rural Main Streets lose their traditional employer businesses.The conversation covers a lot of ground: how SmartStart's bootstrapped, community-embedded model works; the baby-steps approach to getting microbusinesses "bankable"; real stories of downtown revitalization sparked by a single entrepreneur pulling others up behind her; and why traditional KPIs like jobs created and tax revenue don't capture the real impact of this work. Marci introduces the concept of KIIs—Key Impact Indicators—as a better way to measure success before the traditional metrics ever show up.In this episode:Why so many U.S. businesses are microbusinesses, and why that mattersHow SmartStart Navigator helps communities find entrepreneurs who don't yet see themselves that wayThe customer-development-first approach to getting a business "bank ready"Two Main Street revival stories—from a single-storefront herbalist to a six-vendor maker communityWhy traditional KPIs fail microbusinesses, and what Key Impact Indicators (KIIs) look like insteadAdvice for the next generation of economic development practitioners: get out from behind the deskConnect with Marci Goodwin:LinkedIn: Marci GoodwinSmartStart Business DevelopmentSmartStartNavigator.com

Guest: Clive Woodward Estcourt NZ391045, Pilot, Bomb Aimer (14th of October 1917 – 17th of Aug 2017 ) Host: Dave Homewood Recorded: ‎13th of August 2013 Released: 9th of August 2026 Duration: 2 hour 33 minutes 11 seconds Clive Estcourt had been a commercial artist and signwriter in Hamilton in 1939 when the war broke out, and he immediately volunteered to join the Royal New Zealand Air Force. He was sent to the newly-opened RNZAF Station Ohakea in the Manawatu region, and became one of the very first airmen posted into that base after it opened on the 18th of September 1939. He thought when he first joined that he was going to fly aeroplanes…. they made him the station postman! He soon was sidelined to become Ohakea’s station signwriter. He was able to set up his own workshop to make all the signs on the ever-expanding station. But he was still wanting to become a pilot however, and eventually in 1942 he managed to convince the RNZAF to post him to an aircrew course, starting at RNZAF Station Rotorua for his Initial Training Wing course. He then underwent flying training on Tiger Moths at No. 3 Elementary Flying Training School, at RNZAF Station Harewood. He was then sent to Canada to continue his training in October 1942, where he continued training at RCAF Dunnville flying Harvards. But this training did not go well, and he ended up getting getting the chop from the course. Clive was remustered to Observer trade, and completed his training in Canada, before being sent to Britain where he crewed up at No. 11 Operational Training Unit, Westcott. Clive suffered a severe mishap at the OTU and was forced to bail out, which he details, and was forced to do the course again. He was then posted to No. 75 (NZ) Squadron with his almost all-New Zealand crew, consisting of: Captain – Pilot Officer John Rees “Aussie” Layton DFC, RNZAF (NZ425914) Navigator – Flight Sergeant John Christie, RNZAF (NZ4212829), aka Jack, aka BenAir Bomber – Warrant Officer Clive Woodward Estcourt, RNZAF (NZ391045)Wireless Operator/Air Gunner – Flight Sergeant Ta Tio Tuaine “Tai” Nicholas, RNZAF (NZ425658) Mid-Upper Gunner – Flight Sergeant David Onslow Light, RNZAF (NZ4212848)Rear Gunner – Flight Sergeant Leslie Dixon Moore, RNZAF (NZ421327)Flight Engineer – Sergeant F. Samuel, RAFVR After one and a half months at RAF Mepal with the New Zealand squadron, Clive and his crew were selected to be posted from No. 75 (NZ) Squadron to No. 7 Squadron Pathfinder Force at RAF Oakington. They were on Pathfinder operations from October 1944 through till February 1945. During the tour with No. 7 Squadron PFF, the Navigator John Christie was badly injured in a motorcycle accident and he was replaced by:Navigator – Sergeant. Lloyd Edward Anger, RCAF (R200903) However, due to a non-operational error by the captain when he failed to turn up for a briefing, the strict command chain in PFF saw the crew sent back to No. 75 (NZ) Squadron without completing the PFF tour. This included Lloyd Anger who stayed with the crew. They carried on with the New Zealand squadron through February and March 1945 till the original members of the crew were tour expired. Clive completed 36 operational sorties over enemy territory in total, plus several other OTU flights close to enemy territory as well where they were creating a diversion to confuse German defences. Once he completed operational flying he became an instructor at No. 17 Operational Training Unit at Silverstone and Turweston. Postwar, Clive returned to New Zealand and was a member of a Light Anti-Aircraft unit in the Territorial Air Force in Auckland, before becoming the Adjutant of No. 7 Squadron Air Training Corps in Hamilton for 17 years. He was very active in the RNZAF Association, and as a special associate member of the Mess at RNZAF Te Rapa, Hamilton, till its closure. Clive was one of the New Zealand Bomber Command veterans who was selected to be flown to London for the unveiling of the Bomber Command Memorial in Green Park, on the 28th of June 2012. He was the oldest veteran in the New Zealand party, aged 95. Clive passed away on the 17th of Aug 2017, two months before his 100th birthday.

This week on Forgotten Cinema, Forgotten Summer continues with "War of the Worlds", Steven Spielberg's intense adaptation of the H.G. Wells classic.After covering "Flight of the Navigator", discussing "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" in their Lead Up series, releasing a Patreon-exclusive episode on "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial", and reviewing "Disclosure Day", it only felt right for the Mikes to tackle another one of Spielberg's unforgettable alien films.Both Mike Butler and Mike Field love "War of the Worlds". From Spielberg's masterful direction to the relentless pacing and unforgettable set pieces, the film remains just as gripping today as it was upon release. Even after multiple viewings, Butler finds himself on the edge of his seat throughout much of the movie.Of course, the Mikes still have a few nitpicks. Cruise's portrayal of Ray as an almost unbelievably irresponsible father feels exaggerated during the first half of the film, though both agree it ultimately pays off as his character grows over the course of the story. Butler also revisits one of the classic criticisms of the story itself: how could an incredibly advanced alien civilization spend (at least!) centuries preparing to invade Earth without accounting for the planet's microscopic dangers?One of the film's highlights for both Mikes is Tim Robbins' unforgettable performance, which leads to one of the movie's most tense and memorable sequences. They also discuss the controversial ending that has divided audiences for years. While both are ultimately satisfied with it, Butler understands why some viewers struggle with the family's reunion. However, the Mikes point out that both the ending and the aliens' ultimate fate come directly from H.G. Wells' original novel.Thrilling, suspenseful, and packed with unforgettable moments, "War of the Worlds" remains one of Spielberg's finest modern blockbusters and a standout entry in the alien invasion genre.What do you think of "War of the Worlds"? Let us know in the comments below!

Yup, it is shoulder season for us as Martha recovers from shoulder replacement surgery. The operation was successful, but it limits our travels to staying home for at least 6 weeks including all of July. We expect a 100% recovery within a year. But now, we take the time to reflect on many RV topics that have been percolating in the RV Navigator inbox hopper for some time. The latest from Starlink, new AC units, towing capacities, and selected disasters make up this month itinerary. Join us for a summer RV romp in the digital domain.

Allison Black surprised her family by deciding to enlist in the U.S. Air Force after high school. She did it to be part of a mission bigger than herself. After basic training, Black spent the next several years as a Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape - or SERE - instructor, teaching service members what to do if shot down, stuck behind enemy lines, or captured. After several years of that she became an officer in Air Force special operations and served as a navigator aboard an AC-130H gunship. Shortly after 9/11, she and her crew were deployed to Afghanistan.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Col. Black describes her life in SERE training, making the shift to special operations and the AC-130, what 9/11 was like for her, entering combat in Afghanistan, and how a famed Afghan ally ended up dubbing her "The Angel of Death."Retiring in 2024, Black also reflects on the lessons she learned in 32 years of service and what she hopes others learned from her.

This week on Forgotten Cinema, Forgotten Summer begins with "Flight of the Navigator", Disney's beloved family sci-fi adventure that has earned a nostalgic following over the years.Neither Mike Butler nor Mike Field remembered much about the film beyond its iconic alien spaceship, making this revisit almost like watching it for the first time. Butler still finds plenty to enjoy, appreciating the movie's sense of adventure and imagination, while Field is a bit less enthusiastic.One surprise for both Mikes is just how long it takes before the famous ship actually enters the story. Instead, the film spends much of its runtime exploring David's mysterious disappearance, his return years later without having aged, and the strange circumstances surrounding his experience.The discussion quickly turns to what could have been. Both Butler and Field agree that "Flight of the Navigator" is a perfect candidate for a modern remake. The film introduces fascinating ideas that never reach their full potential, from the emotional impact of David's time jump and his parents' reaction to getting their son back, to the connection between David and the ship itself. There is an even richer science fiction story waiting to be told.While it may not fully capitalize on its incredible premise, "Flight of the Navigator" remains a charming family adventure whose imagination continues to inspire nearly forty years later.What did you think of "Flight of the Navigator"?
