When I began working with Laila, I was struggling, unemployed, and in a difficult place…read moreemotionally. The profound gift that Laila brought was the depth of presence that she carries. She listened astutely to everything I shared and also read between the lines, helping me articulate that what I needed to focus on wasn't even actually my career- it was my own personal growth and mental and emotional health. Her questions and carefully developed worksheets are truly holistic, providing an opportunity to reflect broadly on what a more aligned life looks like for you and all your dreams, passions, fears, etc. Yet, as I got clearer on what I needed, I still was unemployed. Laila recognized my immediate need to become financially stable, introducing me to the concept of "transition jobs" and helping me identify what type of work I would be able to do in order to sustain myself while having the time/energy/resources for the deeper personal development I knew I needed. Though it was a difficult process, and I needed a whole support system of friends, counselors, and Laila's holistic approach, I got to work applying for transition jobs. We worked together to create a series of resumes for my different skill sets and Laila honed the language used to describe my experience. She had example resumes and resources that helped me bring life back to my resume, which I had grown deeply disillusioned with. While applying to transition jobs, Laila advised me to apply to as many as possible so I could have the upper hand in making my decision. Still in a very low place, I took the first offer I was given. As Laila could have predicted, I didn't last long (only a couple of weeks). The whole experience helped me realize that I wanted something between a transition job and my dream job, a little more in alignment with who I am. Ultimately, I was given three incredible offers, and Laila helped me negotiate which offers were right for me as well as coached me in negotiating compensation for my skills. If you are somebody who, like me, struggles with imposter syndrome and fully claiming your value, Laila enthusiastically supports you in advocating for yourself. I never imagined I could get the offer I ended up accepting- I am earning the highest hourly wage I've ever earned in a part-time job with full benefits doing the kind of work I want to do (work not usually highly compensated). Throughout the whole process, I always felt I had somebody at my back who believed in me and was available to talk through each interview and the challenges of surviving in such a tough economy, but I also had somebody to celebrate each small win with. Thank you, Laila, for your presence, your attunement, your perseverance toward joy, and your fluffiness! Your support was deeply needed during a very difficult time and brought insights that will change the trajectory of my life. I hope that more people, especially those like me who struggle to live in the system as it is, can work with you to bring meaning to their lives (while also learning to cover the basic costs of getting by)! I am profoundly grateful for the opportunity to work with you.

I've thought for awhile about the resume support I received. In some ways it was helpful. In some…read moreways it was counter productive. Ultimately, both with a temp agency and a recruiter I was given the opposite advice of this service and had to redo my resume entirely twice. The person I was working with no longer lived in Washington and I wonder if not having someone local impacted the advice I was getting. In the end, the most important way to get a job is not a resume. The service I got was good enough but it was very expensive. I think relying on my existing networks and getting support from friends and peers and mentors would have saved me money. If you can't afford this service and you are feeling worried about your resume -- exhaust all other free and lower cost resources before this one. It's a vulnerable time when you're looking for a job. Be safe out there. Reaching out to your existing networks and community is always going to be the best way to get a job.

She was able to make me feel totally relaxed so that I was able to follow her guidance easily. The sessions were not only relaxing, which helped greatly with general stress levels, but working with her allowed me to be myself, to let go and to trust that she was taking me through a transformation or shift. When each of the sessions were finished, I felt a clear sense of that shift and was able to go about my day, free of the emotions that were otherwise getting in the way. Very liberating! With confidence, I highly recommend working with Sage. She is empathetic, compassionate, and gentle but also thorough in getting to the heart of the matter and helping work through the issues at hand.

My own journey has sent me through a series of hardships over the past several years (health issues, divorce, anxiety, financial loss, sleeplessness, a major career change, etc.) and every time, Sage has confidently helped me reframe my perspective of things. No matter what I am going through, she has strategies to offer me hope. While it is always up to me to actually implement the plans, Sage is an invaluable and trusted resource to design these blueprints for action. She motivates me to do well, to question my preconceptions, and to be action-oriented in my own life. I am truly fortunate to have found her and I am so grateful for her healing advice and counsel.

This is LONG over due. Wendy is AWESOME…read more My very first class with Wendy was June/July 2013. It was a life-changing experience. I can honestly say that I am a better person today than I was in July of 2013 and it all started with what I have learned from Wendy. She teaches you life tools. Things I think that we should learn earlier in life to help us deal with life. She is not going to do the work for you, but if you actually practice the tools she teaches you, you will change yourself in the best ways possible. Many people put their money into coffee, clothes, cars, and homes.... Until you invest in your self in this way, all that other stuff is a little shallow. It's like building a "foundation". If the foundation of a house is no good, it doesn't matter how nice the house is.... When you strip everything away, the cars, clothes, house, material items away, what are you left with? Yourself. How do you feel about yourself? Maybe you think your perfect but chances are that you realize how imperfect you are. Which is why you feel the need to have all the fancy materialistic things. In learning to do this great work, you really learn about yourself. What kind of person you are and who you want to be. You begin to listen, tune into your soul and begin to make choices based on what your soul wants rather than your ego. Think about investing in yourself, at the souls level, you won't regret it.

For the Tuesday night Canada West Coast Masterclass led by Jonathan,…read moreWe need some way to get feedback to someone about the Masterclass and the leader of the masterclass.But it has been hard to reach people at the office. And there is no built in way. We're giving it anonymously due to backlash we've seen people receive. We love the overall Masterclass so far and will look forward to keep continuing. However there are a few problems that have creeped up. We're in a new era at Landmark, and there are ways we don't operate or treat people anymore. But some of this is still happening in the masterclass. stuff the leader is still doing or people are still doing to support the leader. Please stop calling us at home if we miss a session, under the guise of we're just checking on you to see if you are okay. We didn't opt in for this, ask for this, or request it.And it comes across as culty, pressuring, and strange. Please stop.It just puts people in a very uncomfortable situation. These are the things that make us hesitant to bring guests or bring more guests. Please stop the we're going to call you at home, or single you out,or put you on the spot, or moralize, or get us in the class to pressure or make other people uncomfortable if they are out for a session, or a few minutes late, for the masterclass, or have to be off camera for some part of it. or behind the scenes talking about, we're going to put people in another room if they don't do this or that. What was happening the other night. It was not Jonathan being Jonathan, and not in a really so new way of empowering people way. We also don't rail into people anymore. We ask for permission to interact in a certain way with people. Also, the leader needs to remember the Masterclass is not the Landmark Leadership academy. It is also not the military. This is a Masterclass, not the military. Nobody signed up for bootcamp or to be railed into. There was an interaction with a young man last week that made people very uncomfortable. Not in an Awesome Landmark Forum way. Jonathan was interacting with the young man who is in a very tough situation. We won't say the name of the young man or the details of the situation, as that is confidential to the seminar. We would not even use the leader's name except that then there'd be no way for anyone who can do anything about it to know which leader or course we were talking about. But we would not be surprised if you ask Jonathan if he doesn't immediately know exactly what interaction you were talking about. Compassion, listening, presence, all of it was out. Jonathan was not his usual open or even strongly standing for people self. Something else was happening. That may have something to do with the similarity of what the young man was dealing with connected to maybe something that was personal to him. It was also a guest event night, so Jonathan only did this, and only kind of uncomfortably put people on the spot, and was this way when the guests weren't in the room. He was just like you're responsible for your situation, you're getting something out of it, you're responsible for your situation, without listening to what the young man was saying anymore at all. Not like an inquiry. Like he was stressed. And wanted this to go on. And like it was just, it really was just something else. And then as soon as the guests were back into the room was a completely different person. Thank goodness none of our guests were accidentally in that room while Jonathan was interacting with this young man that way. With how the leader was being with this young man it seemed like something else was taking over stress or well being or something. It genuinely did seem like, is Jonathan okay, what is he doing, why is he being that way. There was also a guest he had there that was personal for many reasons so maybe that had something to do with it. But the new Landmark Worldwide exists to empower people. Including people in tough situations. And just something else was going on and something else was happening. We don't want the seminar to suddenly fall apart, or to stop being great, or maybe for a guest to get accidentally treated this way, or witness this kind of thing. or someone who may be bringing a guest or has a guest. or suddenly everyone starts getting kicked out the seminar for not being perfect and it starts breeding like this fear and something else in the environment that is not a great way to grow the seminar or inspire people to be inspired, or even share more of themselves, and bring guests. And there have been a few of these things in the Masterclass. But the interaction with that young man, as well, as in anyway putting people on the spot of railing into people, is not something we want to see happening again. It was also the Creating Happiness Seminar for goodness sake. Hard to tell a guest that this, or dealing with people this way is what the Creating happiness seminar or any Landmark Seminar is all about.

And Making Stuff Up that sounds good in person or over the phone just to make something happen. and PLEASE STOP CORNERING AND PRESSURING PEOPLE ONCE YOU ALREADY HAVE THEM IN THE COURSE BECAUSE YOU THINK IT'S OKAY THEN, OR THAT NO ONE OUTSIDE THE COURSE OR GROUP WILL KNOW. PLEASE STOP GETTING TOGETHER AND DECIDING PUSHING AND PRESSURING PEOPLE IS OKAY BECAUSE IT FULFILLS THE COMPANY MANDATES AND FULFILLS LANDMARK'S OBJECTIVES. That includes people registered, or registering in, or thinking about registering in, or even withdrawing from, or transferring between courses.  Having had someone take a course at Landmark within the last couple of months, I have to give this feedback to the Seattle Washington front office here specifically and to the center. This kind of behavior from Landmark employees and volunteers embarrasses people and makes it hard to recommend programs and events there, when this type of behavior is happening.  And we have to teach people how to get around some of this, meaning to deal with as little of this as possible, to try to get to some of the value out of the content that is or can be so helpful in the courses. No one should have to get around the bad, or pressuring behavior, of the employees or volunteers to get to the courses. Please give more space, and breathing room, and presence and listening, and then even more space, and generosity to the people you are interacting with, on the phone and in person. Please don't guilt, shame, grind, manipulate, cajole, people into registering, or staying in, or registering for the seminar, or the next thing,or try to force, convince them, cajole them, manipulate them, grind them, corner them, scare them, pressure them, and force and push them... into being in a group, or doing another program, or into showing up for, participating in, or speaking in, or doing other optional or simply recommended activities events programs, calls, evenings or into bringing guests or more guests.or really into anything The feedback was that this aspect of attempting to do and then finally doing the course was exhausting.  Really just completely exhausting.The times I've run into it as well, I would agree it is completely exhausting. By the way getting people to do things using lying exaggerating, or pressure, builds up resentment and that should not ever be the feeling that Landmark is ever leaving people with, or that a professional organization that says it's out for people, that is out for people, should be leaving people with. Dealing with Landmark personnel should not be a draw back or exhausting part of the course. It should be an enjoyable spacious space. And a great listening. On the phone. And in person. This cultural mandate and habit of grinding down on people, while calling it supporting it shouldn't be a problem still, and it is exhausting.  Be there with people and actually listen to them. People don't have space to think, breathe, choose, or even AGREE with you because you're just grinding them into a corner and not listening at all. And not giving any space or breathing room guilt lies manipulation enough of this. please. put a stop to this within the office and the organization. please. Seriously Seriously stop it. Find another way.  This drawback is exhausting. 4 stars for the content of the programs. 1 star for this kind of continued behavior from the personnel.
