ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Anna Katarina - While I Was Dreaming, Songwriting, and Choosing This Life

Anna Katarina joins Inlet Wire to talk about her album While I Was Dreaming — a record about the beautiful, complicated moments that happen while you’re chasing a different version of success.

In this episode, Anna talks about growing up with big pop-star dreams, learning to value the life around her, and finding meaning in the songs that are not always the obvious “hits.” She also shares how collaboration shaped her writing, what Lost Without You taught her about discipline and inspiration, and why Vancouver still gives her something she needs.
