During these worrisome times of natural disasters and political unrest, the children's star felt that our youth needed a push to achieve and be more positive in overcoming adversity. "I believe we can do anything we put our minds to and wanted to create something upbeat and positive that would reflect hopefulness and inspire others to follow their dreams", said the singer songwriter. Hawkins added, "when I was a child, it was my dream to be on TV everyday and by the grace of God and much perseverance, my dream came true when I landed the role of Robyn, Host of Nick Jr.
If I could do it, 'You Can Do It' too if 'you put your mind to it' as the lyrics go!"
The "You Can Do It" music video features up and coming talent to look out for including gymnasts, martial artists, dancers and additional talent discovered on Backstage, which was a tremendous source. You may even see a couple pics of the Nickelodeon Star's mother, Linda Cofer-Hawkins, a trailblazer who was runner up to Miss New Jersey in the Miss America Pageant!
