From Therapy Room to Coaching Business with Carly Hill

Burnout in private practice is more common than most mental health professionals talk about openly. Back-to-back sessions, income ceilings, no time to breathe, and a growing sense that there has to be another way. In this episode of Between Sessions with Berries, Kym sits down with Carly Hill, an LCSW turned business strategist, to talk about what it actually looks like to transition from private practice into a sustainable coaching business. Carly shares her own unfiltered path from nonprofit community mental health to building a seven-figure coaching business, and breaks down the real mindset blocks, legal foundations, and business strategies that mental health professionals need to make the leap without risking their license or burning out all over again. In This Episode, We Cover: * Why so many therapists are already coaching inside their private practice without realizing it. * The legal and ethical steps to protect your license when adding coaching services. * How to find and commit to a niche when you're used to helping everyone. * The money mindset shifts required to charge high-ticket rates with confidence. * What sustainable scaling actually looks like through systems, team, and leadership. * How Carly uses AI tools like ClickUp AI and her own custom tool, Carly AI, to streamline her business.

What High-Functioning Anxiety Looks Like in Motherhood with Danielle Smith

Most moms know things will change when a baby arrives. What's harder to anticipate is how much the internal experience shifts, especially for high-achieving women who have always relied on productivity and drive to feel grounded. When the old coping strategies stop working, and the to-do list keeps growing, something has to give. In this episode of Between Sessions with Berries, Kym sits down with Danielle Smith, LCSW, PMH-C, a licensed clinical social worker and certified perinatal mental health specialist, to talk about what high-functioning anxiety actually looks like in early motherhood. Danielle draws on both her clinical expertise and her own experience as a mom of three to normalize what so many women are quietly navigating, and to offer practical ways to get support without adding more pressure. In This Episode, We Cover: * What high-functioning anxiety looks like in mothers and why it often goes unrecognized. * Why motherhood surfaces old patterns and coping strategies that no longer work. * The glass ball theory for figuring out what to keep juggling and what to set down. * What most pregnant women overlook when preparing for the postpartum period emotionally. * The difference between therapy and coaching, and how each type of support serves a different need. * How Danielle uses ChatGPT to reduce mental load at home and in her business.
