  • Obstacle: Her first six albums’ masters were owned by others, after her former label was sold, so she did not control her own music.

    Action: She re-recorded those albums as “Taylor’s Version,” building new versions she fully owns - leveraging fan support, streaming success, and her brand to diminish the value of the originals.

    Opportunity: Because her re-recordings and her Eras Tour were massively successful (the tour grossed over $2 billion) she was able to regain ownership of her masters from Shamrock Capital in 2025.

    • Obstacle: Grew up in poverty, endured abuse as a child, and faced constant rejection early in her broadcasting career.

      Action: Chose resilience, building her skills, sharing her authentic voice, and refusing to let her past define her.

      Opportunity: Became one of the most influential women in the world, creating a media empire and using her story to inspire millions to overcome their own obstacles.
