The fertile void is the space between our old story before we have stepped into and claimed our new story. In the fertile void, we can often feel stuck and frustrated. What often keeps us stuck is trying too hard out of fear of never creating the life we want deep inside. Find out why self-help tools and techniques typically don’t work, and let Russell guide you upstream to your innate well-being and confidence to get unstuck and claim your life of possibility and purpose. Whether it’s creating the family you crave or the success you know you deserve, Russell will help you see how misunderstandings about the nature of thoughts and feelings mean we get in our own way from being who we want to be and creating what we want. Russell will help you change your relationship with your thoughts, feelings and sense of identity to help you know you are OK whether you feel OK or not and live the life true to yourself and not your habitual insecure thoughts.

Don’t let infertility rob you of your femininity
Tuesday Sep 01, 2020
Tuesday Sep 01, 2020
The fertility journey can rob you of your femininity as a woman (and masculinity as a man but this episode is for the women).
My wish for you to know you are the powerful, beautiful, sassy, creative, sexy, nurturing feminine energy you are.
Society doesn't value feminine energy. Men often don't understand it and are often scared of it. This can leave women feeling disempowered, misunderstood and feeling wrong for feeling how they feel.
It's time women were empowered to be fully feminine. Yes at times they will want/need to be in their masculine, but it's time we valued and appreciated feminine energy, we need more of it in society to bring more balance.

Tuesday Aug 25, 2020
This is not just for men experiencing infertility (whether their own or their partners) but also for women who may want to understand the fertility journey from a man’s perspective.

The Fertile Mind Podcast Trailer!
Friday Aug 21, 2020
Friday Aug 21, 2020
The Fertile Mind helps you let go of psychological blocks to getting pregnant. My wife and I had a 10-year fertility journey and have seen infertility from pretty much every angle.
Looking back we can see how much our mind and emotions played a role in the journey and if knew then what we know now it would not have been a 10-year journey.
I believe too many couples go through fertility treatment unnecessarily and the success rate of fertility treatment is unnecessarily low because the mind and emotions are not treated. This is also the experience of my clients.
I went on to retrain as a Coach and Cognitive Hypnotherapist and now help women and couples on their fertility journey to fast-track their journey to success.
Join me each week as I help you off the emotional rollercoaster and guide your mind and body to your fertility success.
To your success!
Loving you

The ONE thing we wish we knew on our 10 year fertility journey
Tuesday Aug 04, 2020
Tuesday Aug 04, 2020
On our 10 year fertility journey my wife and I saw infertility from every angle! Female infertility, male infertility, unexplained infertility, an infertility diagnosis, secondary infertility...
So what's the ONE thing I wish I knew on our fertility journey? What's the one thing I believe would have meant it would not have been a 10-year journey?
The lowest point in our fertility journey, getting my test result when we thought we were on the home straight sent me into a psychological tailspin. It triggered an inner journey I wasn't expecting or planning. But it is that inner journey that was the difference that made the difference. It is the same with my clients.
In this episode find out more about what specifically I learnt on my journey that unlocked things for us. So many of my clients have the same insights that unlocks their ability to conceive in their life, whether it's the baby or the career they crave.

Feeling more in control of your fertility
Tuesday Jul 28, 2020
Tuesday Jul 28, 2020
Recorded at the start of the Covid19 pandemic lockdown this show explores the fear of not being in control.
Many of my clients have a fear of not being able to control their fertility or the outcome of treatment. In the past they’ve had a goal and worked hard to strive and achieve it. That approach doesn’t work for fertility. It’s not something you can control in the same way.
The feeling of not being control can be scary.
In this episode I explore what's behind the fear of not being in control and how we can feel secure even though we don’t have control.
