Background

“I Can’t Fix You”, was written for one of Pieterse' friends who is struggling with addiction. “I wanted to save this person. I wanted to fix them. And, I couldn’t, ” she says upon revealing the tear-inducing inspiration behind the song. “And it kind of came down to me realizing that, because I couldn’t do that, all I could do was love them and support them, and try to keep them accountable.”[2]

She has teamed up with A Light of Hope, a substance abuse support center in Southern California, to promote the song and its powerful message. Ten percent of the single’s sales will go to benefiting the non-profit’s life-saving services. “I’m excited to be partnering up with A Light of Hope,” said Pieterse. “They’re in my local community and they’re doing such great work.”[2]
