Do you have everything you're supposed to want, but still feel like something is missing? You're not broken. You've just been looking in the wrong place.
I'm Russell Davis, therapist and executive coach. In Clarity Within, I help ambitious people reconnect with their innate confidence, find genuine clarity and purpose, and build a life that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.
I know this territory firsthand. After years of striving, and an eight-year fertility journey that brought me to a breaking point, I discovered that clarity and confidence aren't things you earn. They already live within you.
Each episode explores honest conversations and real insights that create lasting change. Not tools or techniques. Just a deeper understanding of who you are and what you're truly capable of.
The search is over. It starts within.

In January we are revisiting some episodes from the archive. I was asked to contribute to a book of real life stories where a change in perspective brought a change in life. In this episode I share my story that I wrote for the book. Find out hat changed in my thinking that led to my fertility improving dramatically (without me trying, I had given up trying to improve it!) resulting in the natural conception of our son against all odds.
My clients find their journey is like mine in so many ways. Could it be your story?

About the Show:
I help women and couples remove psychological blocks to getting pregnant. Based on my and my wife’s 10 year fertility journey and the work of my clients I believe too many couples have IVF unnecessarily and that the success rate of IVF is unnecessarily low. We can see how much our mind and emotions played a part in our fertility journey and when we found a place of peace without giving up that’s when the magic happened - we conceived naturally against all odds. I help me clients do the same - remove psychological blocks to getting pregnant naturally or getting the successful IVF outcome they so want.
When I ask women what having a baby will give them they usually say a sense of completeness, love and purpose. It’s our fear of not having these things, a fear of not being enough, worthy that tends to be behind our fear of not having a baby. These limiting beliefs have usually been around since an early age and infertility shines a spotlight on them. Many of my clients have strived for success in their life whether career or other things. That approach doesn’t work for fertility. In fact it puts tension in the body which decreases their chances of success.
The podcast is short does of insight, giving women and couples new perspectives that allows them to see their fertility from the ‘inside-out’. To see help them let go of their insecure thoughts and feelings and connect to their innate wellbeing that knows they are enough and OK whatever happens. This moves having a baby from being a ’need’ to to a desire. It takes the pressure of the process and their mind and body relax into it’s natural flow state. Stress can impact the delicate balance of hormones required for a successful pregnancy.

When we understand the principles of our human experience stop fighting against how our mind works and we can find peace and wellbeing far more easily. We let go of misunderstandings that stop us accessing our innate resources of clarity, resilience and perspective. In this episode we begin to explore the three principles of our human experience so you can begin to work with then instead of fighting against them. So you can stop trying to pull the door open when it pushes open!

In January we are revisiting some the episodes from the archive. On our fertility journey each morning I would take my pile of enormous pills praying it was making a difference. I had also changed all my underwear, stopped keeping my phone in my pocket, was having acupuncture but had no idea if all this effort was going to make a difference to my fertility.
But I couldn't not do it. I'd have done anything if I thought it might help. This is how our fertility and Project Baby can become all-consuming. In this episode we look at how why we don't feel in control of our fertility and what we can
do about that.
