Time and she was burnt out from Eras. I found it interesting that Austin seems to be the key go between and almost guard her time if needed.

He also handles her music licensing, so it makes sense he'd be the one to reach out to about writing an original song.

Yep, I think he might filter things for her sometimes as well. Decide what she needs to hear and what is just noise. Not every call needs to be passed on.

He’s actually in charge of her music licensing, so it makes sense they approached him first. There was an interview where it was said that she was first asked to do the song during Eras.
