Reviews

I recently had the pleasure of seeing Russell Fox at a work conference. Russell absolutely lives up to his "magician insane" title!! he was both charismatic and truly inspiring. Once we were convinced that WE TOO can do the broken glass walk that he is famously known for, the entire company accepted the challenge and did the walk. His show gave us more motivation to drive our business forward to new heights than any other speaker Ive come across I would highly recommend Russell to and company or private person that is interested in building confidence and shifting mindsets in their staff members.

After having a serious heart attack, triple by pass open heart surgery, life was a slow careful journey. Everything slowed down and one tends to stop living - too scared to do something, the "what if my heart" thoughts hanging around. After attending a conference where Russel spoke and months of life coaching, everything changed for the better. I see life in a far more positive way. Correct to living. Correct diet (which is still work in progress). Correct positive mind set. I am not great at writing reviews, but what I can say is, having crossed paths with a life saver such as Russell, has meant the world to me.

Russell has been an invaluable resource for me in regaining not only my health and fitness but also setting plans in place to address business and personal growth. He is open and intuitive and doesn't shy away from asking questions that demand reflection and self-evaluation. We may have begun our coaching by addressing my relationship with food, but he has had a positive impact on every aspect of my life. I am incredibly grateful for his insights and his guidance!

Shane Addinall CEO Ink Fish Digital

Russell has been an amazing help in giving me the tools and insight to find my inner strength and overcome challenges to reach my goals. He also helped me revitalise and lean into my relationship with God.
