In an episode of "Kapuso Mo Jessica Soho," Russell detailed the hardships that he suffered through in his life prior to reaching this point.

Russell retains memories of his childhood, where they wouldn’t even be able to afford to eat thrice a day. "Bata ka, nakikita mo 'yung parents mo na nagsa-struggle. Wala kaming malapitan. Wala kang mahiraman ng pera. Kumakain ka lang once a day. Sobrang hirap," he said.His brother, however, worked in Dubai. They discussed the possibility of Russell following suit."Wala kang pera. Naglalakad ka under the sun, sobrang init. Kailangan mong magpunta sa multiple interviews. Bakit ako hindi ako nakapasa sa interview? Ano pa 'yung kulang sa akin?" Russell wondered.

"Hindi ko expected na ganun kababa," he said. "Naging motivation ko 'yun na kulang 'yung sinusweldo ko. Nakapagtrabaho ako sa housekeeping. Nagkaroon ako ng experience sa stewarding. Nakita nila na meron akong kakayahan mag-manage ng tao... na-promote ako," he said.It was all just by chance.
