8THIRTYFOUR Blog: Taylor + Disney+ Taylor swift dancing by a disney logo

Taylor has done it again, but this time with help from Disney. 

For all those who are not totally obsessed with Taylor Swift (It’s me, hi. I’m a top 2% fan on Spotify in 2023. It’s me.), Taylor released The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version) on Disney+ on March 14. If you are thinking, what is Taylor’s Version craziness? First, where have you been the past two years? Second, just read this

The reason that it’s so exciting to watch Taylor’s Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version) on Disney+ is that previously, you had to spend $19.89 (a genius amount as it is referencing the 1989 album) on streaming channels to watch the movie, but now it’s included in your Disney+ subscription and features new songs that were not in the original film shown in theaters (literally could write a separate blog post about the strategy behind releasing the films in this way…again Taylor being a Mastermind.) 

What makes this even better is that Disney+ has organized its movies to match each era of Taylor’s albums

So, if you are looking for Cinderella, you will find it under the Midnight’s album or The Little Mermaid under 1989, as that is the year it was released. What makes this so amazing is that Disney understands their Swiftie audience. Swifties love a good reference to Taylor, and this is the perfect way to launch what will be one of the biggest spotlights of Taylor’s career, which will be watched millions of times for years to come. If you are scrolling on TikTok or Instagram today, Swifties everywhere are sharing Disney+ organization with an overkill of excitement. So not only are Swiftie’s rushing to Disney+ to watch the movie, they are sharing their experience all over social media. 

If you are not jumping on the Taylor bandwagon, that’s fine, but don’t expect it to go away any time soon. With Taylor’s new album, The Tortured Poets Department, being released on April 19, having her “Taylor Swift” and “Reputation” albums yet to be released as Taylor’s Version, and many more concerts to take place, this craze is not going away anytime soon.

The power of the Women's Entrepreneurial Fellowship, in a graduate's own words:

"Growth is never accidental, it comes from being willing to learn, adapt, and embrace change. After nine months of dedication, reflection, and business development, I proudly graduated from the Women's Entrepreneurial Fellowship (WEF) during the Small Business Association of Michigan Annual Meeting.

Throughout the program, I challenged myself to evaluate every aspect of my business, celebrating what was working while identifying opportunities for growth and improvement. The journey was made even more meaningful through the support of an incredible cohort of women entrepreneurs, the guidance of mentor Gina Jacquart Thorsen, and the leadership of bodespeaks and her team.

A sincere thank you to smallbusinessassocofmichigan for investing in second-stage women business owners and creating opportunities that empower entrepreneurs to build stronger, more sustainable businesses."

— Mary A. Barton, President and CEO of Equitable Accounting Solutions and proud WEF graduate.

AI doesn't treat every source equally; it trusts what's credible, cited, and current, like news coverage.

Showing up in the right places isn't just good PR. It's how the robots (and the humans) get you right.

"If you don't get up and grind every day, the needle isn't gonna move."

We sat down with brandonmccraney, founder and Master Blender behind olderaleighdistillery in Zebulon, North Carolina. Brandon spent fifteen years just thinking about whiskey before he finally opened his doors, and even then it took four more years, a dozen rejections, construction delays, and a global pandemic to get there. Two years later, Olde Raleigh had already won Best Micro Distillery in the US.

Check out the latest episode of Happy Hour Hustle, where Brandon shares what it actually took to grow a business through COVID, the military discipline that kept him going when everything else said quit, and how working with people turned out to be the hardest part of the job.
