What a spectacular year 2022 has been. And in many ways, I can thank Disney (and the Mouse) for it. This year kicked-off with me fully devoting myself to the Disney Creators Lab program and Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary. The Disney Creators Lab program was a Disney-curated, multi-month program that Disney executives created specifically to groom, influence and educated Disney Influencers on all things magic and Disney. Now, I was asked, along with many other influencers across the country, to join the program at the end of 2021.

And by April of 2022, I celebrated with the Disney team and my fellow influencers as we sailed across the tropical Atlantic Sea on the Disney Dream cruise line.

But, the magic didn’t stop there. Disney’s team then chauffeured us back to their Walt Disney World parks so we could explore, capture and immerse ourselves in a week-long adventure hosted by the Mouse. Disney showered us with gifts and merchandise, hosted a TikTok influencer party where we were able to mix & mingle with TikTok executives and they even housed us in the beautiful Animal Kingdom Lodge Hotel.

But to top it all off, our experience was recapped in one of the most notable publications in America literature, Forbes Magazine.

With all the magic and love I’ve experienced from Disney this year, it would be unbeknownst to me not to give you all a brief recap of all the special things going on at Walt Disney World in honor of its 50th anniversary. Click the video below to watch it now. And remember, Walt Disney World’s 50th Celebration ends on March 31, 2023, so you have plenty of time to pay the mouse a visit for his birthday. 😉 Happy Birthday Walt Disney World! – David Plowden, David’s Manor.
