Finding Fulfillment Beyond the Spotlight: Mia’s Journey From Overwhelmed Pop Star to Successful Songwriter

“Tell me what it’s worth if I let it live if I’m not really happy. But I would love it, I want good love, and anyone who wants to love me.” The opening lines of “Hie u now” are program. “Looking back, I wasn’t particularly grounded at the time,” says Mia. “The success that went from zero to one hundred overwhelmed me.” In addition, her pop star image no longer corresponds to her self-perception. First, Mia pulls the ripcord, second, she withdraws from the public eye, and third, she goes to Berlin to do what she loves to do most: write songs. And not for himself at first, but for other artists, from the princes to Max Giesinger to Helene Fischer. “I quickly realized: writing texts, playing with language, that’s totally my thing.”
