Summer Gives Way to Autumn Playlist

By -
Labor day weekend is here. Time for bbq, swimming, and one last escape to the beach. With it on such a late date this year, I would be lying if I said I wasn't already thinking hoodies, smores, football, and pumpkin spice, though. These songs are perfect to get cozy, but I will admit I actually compiled this back in 2012, so it is a bit of a throwback. But what better way than to reminisce to seasons past? So in honor of this great weekend, here are some tunes to transition us from bikini season to hoodie season. Enjoy!

I do this in hoping to reach someone so they know they are not alone or might gain some insight. I also hope to help break the stigma among those who aren't personally suffering. Together we can all get through this! So who am I? Basically, I am a 30-something mother of 3, with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Masters in School Counseling.
