Ivana Lovrić says spirituality has changed her life after a difficult period that left her facing years of creative block. The Colonia singer now practices meditation and spiritual rituals every day, describing them as a force that completely transformed her.

She also spoke openly about the strain of combining motherhood with a music career. Two years after her daughter was born, Lovrić continues to manage numerous performances while the child still needs attention at night. Lovrić often returns from concerts at dawn, leaving her chronically short of sleep.

The most important thing of all.

She described the situation as challenging but said she is satisfied with her life. Her daughter’s start at kindergarten has made the routine easier. Lovrić also recalled taking the child with her to performances, calling it her worst decision because the experience exhausted them both.

I am grateful for that bottom. It brought me to where I am now, and I am a different person from the one I was.

It brought me to where I am now, and I am a different person from the one I was,” she said, adding that she had exchanged fear and limitations for freedom.

Lovrić and her husband announced the arrival of their child on social media. She later revealed that she was going to become a mother at a Megadance party, telling the audience: “Boris, I, and my baby say hello.” She took over as Colonia’s lead singer from Indira Levak in 2017, after Levak began a solo career.

Boris, I, and my baby say hello.
