  • How Taylor Swift Got Out of Her Flop Era

    How Taylor Swift Got Out of Her Flop Era
    2025/10/17

But what looked like a decline was actually a turning point. In this episode, we break down how Taylor used that moment to quietly rebuild her career on her own terms. From reclaiming her masters to the creative freedom of Folklore and Evermore, we explore how she turned a supposed “flop era” into the foundation for the most powerful chapter of her career.
