Country music is all about great stories and the ability to connect with people that might be on a similar journey or place in life. Many do not understand the years of work and sacrifices that go into becoming an overnight success, in any industry let alone the music industry. It only seems fitting that we would do this interview with Austra - lian-born, now Nashville-based Singer-Songwriter, Katrina Burgoyne, while she was on the road driving back to Nashville after a week of doing gigs. Katrina opens up about the challenges that she has faced in her journey, finding her true person and understanding that she is right where she is supposed to be in life and her career as she pursues her dreams in Music City.

Asking for Help and Focusing on Yourself is not a Bad Thing

With the growth in the use of mobile devices and user connectivity, it should be no surprise that online audiences are growing at a steady rate and are at an all-time high and showing no signs of slowing down. People are moving away from traditional television like cable and moving to streaming platforms that offer more program- ming and better prices for their small and big- screen viewing. Given this digital audience growth, one might assume that this is coming at the expense of decreasing magazine audiences; however, that could not be further from the truth and in fact, it might even be contributing to the growth.
