Landmark - Scottsdale, Arizona

Josey Freeman

This has been the worst experience of my life! I originally agreed to do the forum because my boss thought it would be good for me as I was struggling with some personal issues. The experience in the room felt like torture. The room was too cold, we were followed to the bathroom and chastised for even going. I know some people had really great experiences and at first I thought I had as well. However, since me doing the forum last year I have been harassed by people from landmark with them calling sometimes up to 12 times a day. When I call them, they do not answer and they do not return calls as promised. They talk so much about integrity but have none of their own. The worst part is that I paid a ton of money including paying for my sister and my boyfriend to attend the forum both who also had a very negative experience. I then paid for an “advanced course” before realizing how bad the situation was and I have been contacting the center for months trying to get a refund for services that were both not effective and some courses that were paid for and I did not even attend. Again, they do not return my calls. Since the forum, I have not had a good nights sleep. I have crazy dreams and experience what my psychologist describes as psychosis. I have never had sleep or mental health issues before the forum. My life has gotten astronomically worse since the forum and put me in debt that now a year later I am still trying to recover from. My psychologist that I now have to see to help me recover from this terrible experience describes it as some form of hypnosis that gives us that warm feeling after the forum but quickly fades when we leave the building. At one point I had been talked into joining a leadership program and then my mom fell ill so I expressed that I was unable to attend and the center manager actually told me that I needed to be there because I had made a commitment to them. He told me I had a responsibility to landmark and not my mom. I chose to go be with my mom and she actually passed away that weekend. I am so glad I did the right thing and not listen to them.

Complete scam! I My personal experience with the Landmark forum was pretty negative. I would never recommend it to anyone. It is a complete loss of time and money.
Joy was the name of the "trainer" and for the first 3 hours she kept explaining how cheap that forum is for what I am getting back ( the whole time it was unclear what exactly am I getting back) and what a good deal we have for the money we are paying. Then some people that said they participated in every forum started asking questions such as "What can I expect from the forum?", "How the forum will help me overcome my issues?" , etc.. which for me it does not make any sense..if you participate every time you should know what to expect. The whole thing looks so staged and fake!!
The trainer was so rude and impolite to the people sharing their stories. The whole time she kept saying how she does not care if we think she is rude or impolite, that we have to wait for the "breakthrough" and we cannot leave after the first day unless we are weak..?!.
Obviously they use brain wash techniques and they understand people's psychology very well. Especially if you have life crisis or any kind of personal problems they know how to use that against you and brain wash you and take your money.

After resisting Landmark Forum for 20 years, I finally decided to take a chance and see if it delivers as advertised. At worst, I would be out some money and 3 days -- At best, it would change my life in a positive and meaningful way. It was the best. An amazing experience that's difficult to describe. There are no secrets - Heck, everything I heard can be found in books and podcasts. But what makes the Forum unique is how it's all pulled together and executed so intensely -- Similar to learning a foreign language through total immersion. I highly recommend the Forum, whether you think you're perfect or not. Just remember, as in life, the Forum is what you make it to be. (Grateful to course leader Katherine Zakrzewski.)

One thing it is not...It is NOT a cult. Only people who have never done the courses and/or don't understand the tools that are given to create an amazing limitless life of their choosing would say such a thing. It is the single most empowering thing I've ever done for myself. I've read a lot of self help books and taken a lot of courses throughout the last 15 years and this compliments many of the ideas but goes way beyond all of that. Simply put, it's profound.

I've been a participant of Landmark and in the Phoenix center since October 2011 (I can't believe it's been 10 years already), but my life is unrecognizable. Early on I tripled my income, then doubled it again - all because I started becoming and owning my life vs at the effect of my circumstances. This has impacted my friendships, family relationships, romantic relationship, confidence - really all areas of my life. I am SO grateful for Landmark and the Phoenix Center! This is the most exciting thing I've ever done in my life and I highly recommend!

Just WOW! I had no idea what was in the way of me being free to love and receive love in relationships! There was a conversation about putting the past in the past...and I can't wait to see what my future looks like!

Oh, and I had a huge breakthrough in my business!

Life changing!! It gave me the breakthrough I needed and my life has changed its course. Absolutely one of the top 5 best things that has happened to me in life was doing the landmark forum. Incredibly powerful. There isn't anyone who will not benefit from the forum if you do it how it's intended to be done. Highly recommend for everyone!

My experience with landmark is truly one of the most confusing experiences I have had. After coming from an introduction in a slightly high pressure sales environment, I bought into the Forum only to be turned around and told “the forum isn’t for me” when I arrived for my session 1 month later. I had taken off 3 days of work and missed a doctor appointment with my expecting wife to come to the forum so this was a bit frustrating. I still benefited from the intro and had an individual breakthrough nonetheless.

I would recommend anyone to give a shot at something they were unsure of, yet believe could change their life. I thought that’s what the Forum could be for me and it wasn’t, but that doesn’t mean it can’t work for you.
