S7:10 EP102: Taylor Swift and the Power of Collective Experience with Rachel Sherlock

Love her, hate her, you can't ignore her: Taylor Swift is a global phenomena. Today on the podcast, Katie is joined by Rachel Sherlock to discuss the power of girlhood, joy, dressing up, collective experience, and what the Eras Tour and Taylor Swift as an artist can offer a culture starved for meaning, unity, and good old fashioned fun. Plus - their favorite Swift songs, how they became fans, what era they are, and so many good deep dives for true Swift fans. If you're a Swiftie, this is a real treat, and if you're not, tune in and understand what all the fuss is about! (and get excited for her new album - dropping at the end of this week!) *special shout-out to my husband Chris for his great piano covers of Taylor’s songs, “Wildest Dreams” and “You are in Love” on this episode! --- www.bornofwonder.com  www.mediamarqcreative.com Born of Wonder Substack Come to Ireland with me in October 2024!  --- Find Rachel Sherlock online: https://www.rachelsherlock.com/  @seekingwatson Listen to her podcast! --> Risking Enchantment  --- Articles we discuss: What the Taylor concert was really like.  The Fellowship of Taylor Swift
