About Me
You know them.
The people who radiate calm, compassion, and power. Those who can say what needs to be said, who lift others up, who stay centered regardless of the chaos raging around them. They are unstoppable, their lives work, and they make their dreams come true. They are the ones that people follow, who have deep and loving relationships, and who seem as if they could reach beyond the sky and touch the stars.
These are the ones who have mastered themselves. Who have banished their negative thoughts, their judgments, and their endlessly looping resentments and petty upsets. Who no longer need to be right or to fight for status or to have their way. Who are not stopped by fears, the judgments of others, or by the thousand life-numbing concerns the rest of us allow to limit our lives.
I coach for Personal Mastery. To develop in you the six key characteristics that personal mastery requires: self-knowledge, for if you don’t know yourself, you can’t grow; courage, for without it, you won’t have the heart to move forward; responsibility, for if you blame others for the circumstances of your life, you give away your power; your relationship to reality, for if you mistake your thoughts and feelings for what is real you’ll be trapped by your own illusions; integrity, for if your life is not in balance, it will come apart; and, finally, heart-centered, for it is connection, service, and love that elevate our lives.
If you would like to blaze your own path, chase your dreams, and be your own person; if you would like to transform your family, community, or workplace; and if you would like to be content, with peace and joy lacing your days—let’s get to work.
Call me today.

VerifiedGreat questioning and understanding. Holding you accountable. Highly recommended
Naftali Schnitzler
VerifiedRussell was an amazing coach to work with! He provided me with the non-judgemental perspective I needed to get out of my own head and to begin concretely addressing the issues I was dealing with at work. Much of what I gained through our discussions was also transferable to other areas of my life. I highly recommend him.

VerifiedA general sense of dissatisfaction and uncertainty about where to aim my energies got me to start searching for a life coach. Armed with a laundry list of dissatisfactions and disappointments, I approached our first call prepared to be held accountable and forever kick my laziness out the window! Little did I know where this would instead take me. Over the next few weeks, Russell helped me shine a light on what had been holding me back for years and I now find myself free to be who I really am. For example, Russell gave me back the desire to meet people and freed me from my fear of constantly being judged. I thought I was constantly competing with others, when in fact I was afraid of a judgment that was never there to begin with.

I have worked with Russell since 2015, and I am much the better for it! We started in 2015 with a year and a half of intensive coaching, which was a totally transformative experience. In our first session, he told me that coaching was in large part about reflecting back to me what he was hearing, in a way that I could see myself anew. That's exactly his genius: the ability to get someone out of the weeds and gain a new perspective. I learned so much about myself: patterns of behavior, mechanisms that held me back, and tools to overcome those mechanisms. Since then, I have continued to call on Russell for periods of coaching, and I always learn so much about myself. Not only do I learn, but I translate those learnings into actions and real improvement. Russell's patience, empathy, and perseverance even with the most stubborn of clients (that would be me) make him an outstanding coach.

Russell Heath embodies what it is to be a coach. He champions your individual power and guides you gently until it is in focus. Working with Russell was enlightening, expansive and a true joy. I am forever changed by our work together. The words: "thank you" do not seem big enough for the gratitude I have in my heart to Russell Heath and all he has taught me.

Working with Russell was a totally transformative experience. In our first session, he told me that coaching was in large part about reflecting back to me what he was hearing, in a way that I could see myself anew. That's exactly his genius: the ability to get someone out of the weeds and gain a new perspective. I learned so much about myself: patterns of behavior, mechanisms that held me back, and tools to overcome those mechanisms. I arrived completely stuck in a job and paralyzed about relationships; 11 months later, I had landed a promotion, embarked on a solo creative project, and delved back into dating with confidence. Russell's patience, empathy, and perseverance even with the most stubborn of clients (that would be me) make him an outstanding coach.

"Coaching has given me the strength and courage to move beyond thinking to action on the issues most important to me. Coaching has dramatically increased my confidence and enabled me to make many positive changes in my life at home, work, and in all my relationships."
TC, Juneau, Alaska
Russell has used his great talent for getting at what stopped me or limited my performance in my career. He was indispensable in a time of heavy stress and uncertainty and coached me through it when I had no one else to turn to. I highly recommend him.
John Messerschmidt, Entrepreneur, New York, NY
For me, it was important to work with a coach who was smart as well as supportive, and Russell is very sharp. He coached me on my career, and while I saw big improvements there, I also saw our work helping me in other areas of my life. Essentially, Russell gave me the tools to redefine my personal narrative. When I think there's something I can't do or am powerless to change, I go back to the work I did with Russell, and it helps me discover how I can, in fact, be in action.
Julia L, Stand-up Comedian, New York, NY
Russell is an amazing coach! I felt extremely comfortable working with him and opening up to him about myself right from the first session. Throughout the time we spent working together I gained numerous new insights about myself and my own 'mechanisms'. I saw my own world differently and as a result was able to affect it and change my situation for the better. The best part about these realizations is that they came from within myself...with the gentle guidance of a professional...so I felt ownership over them and more empowered by them. I would highly recommend working with Russell if you are in the market for leadership training and really want results!
Joan Picker, Customer Marketing Manager at Godiva Chocolatier, NJ
The big win from my coaching sessions with Russell was a healthy and necessary change of perspective. Tough, passionate, legitimate feedback with no surprises that was always accompanied by a sense of compassion. It is this latter quality that underpinned all of our work together and provided a sense of direction for me as I moved into a more effective (Russell would say powerful) position in all aspects of my life.
Ira R. Corporate Executive, New York, NY
It has been a great opportunity and gift to take this journey with Russell at my side. He was kind, supportive and nonjudgmental in his approach which allowed me to communicate freely. I learned in coaching that assertions and judgments cannot be made by what we think is reality, but what we learn about ourselves and the world through experiences. This knowledge would not have been possible without Russell’s fluid intellect and ability to adapt to my needs. He understood that the best way to accomplish goals and effect change was for me to incorporate a holistic approach (mind and body) to my life. I had to learn to take responsibility for my emotional and physical health in order to sustain long-term success in life. The educational tools Russell used in coaching enabled me to clearly measure progress and identify areas for growth and/or improvement. There were times, when I felt frustrated and immobilized, but Russell displayed patience, understanding and validation. He was able to identify ambiguity and provide a summation of my thoughts in a logical and concise manner. Moreover, Russell’s empathic ability and strong active listening skills dispelled any doubt I had in pursuing a career as an entrepreneur.

Russell is a gentle force that keeps the conversation headed in the direction you want it to go. Think of him like a magnet that pulls the treasure out of the sand.
Hillary R., Producer, Los Angeles CA
Russell is one of the most attentive and focused listeners I've ever met, and one who does not inject his own opinion into the conversation train, but instead skillfully elicits from you what you are really trying to say. He naturally and genuinely enjoys digging deeper to find together with you the deeper underlying belief structures that drive or hamper your life, and respectfully encourages through listening and questioning that you take responsibility for your own path. Such engagements are not merely puzzles he enjoys figuring out -- he comes from a place of true empathy and compassion, ever striving to work together to bring out the best in you, and to make the world a better place as a result. Russell is a rare soul that I cannot more highly recommend as a guide and counselor if you are eager to break old thinking habits and create for yourself a world of near infinite possibilities.
Kenyon Fields, Environmental Activist, Durango CO
The most valuable thing I got from working with Russell was seeing my hidden, deep fear of fully owning my own power. Not just seeing this, but recognizing how I had limited enormous capabilities throughout my entire life- in work, relationships and my own self image. Russell has an extraordinary ability to listen and get deeply to the root of the matter for his clients- where real, lasting changes can occur.
Kristen M., ZenMoves Founder, Hoboken NJ
In one coaching session, Russell dug into the core of what was holding me back and led me through some painful beliefs I had about myself. He’s tenacious; he was there for the result I said I wanted even though I wasn't being completely cooperative. He didn't give up on me. He’s tough with a toughness based in compassion. When we came out on the other side, I created a new direction of where I want to go.
