🎤 Enchanted: A non-Swiftie’s takeaway from the Taylor Swift mania

Years later, with the success of her next few albums Lover (2019) and Evermore (2020), everyone now wants a piece of her Eras Tour. What happened to all those haters back then? Who knows, they may very well be among the 14 million people who were unsuccessful in securing tickets to her latest show. (Hey Google, play Karma by Taylor Swift.)

Swift’s tumultuous professional journey made clear to me a couple of things: First, there will always be people who don’t like you for various reasons. And that’s fine. Focus on your tribe; those who actually know you and care about you. You don’t have to be friends with everyone.

Second, sometimes the only way out is through. Swift’s persistence through her many “eras” showed how despite all the criticism she endured, she has had the last laugh.

👧🏻 You’re on your own, kid

Swift, for all that she has gone through, appears to have emerged stronger and better than ever. Dare we say it, she’s absolutely thriving 😊🌱.
