Get Real Zen owner Maggie Calder

Maggie’s intriguing and multifaceted journey began with her birth in the captivating and picturesque landscapes of Scotland, where she was nurtured and raised as a master storyteller, equipped with the courage and tenacity to face the unknown. This foundational experience led her to explore the profound and transformative teachings of Eastern philosophy. Driven by her insatiable curiosity, she embraced a diverse array of roles throughout her life, including that of a spirited Harley-Davidson racer, an accomplished culinary chef, a creative interior designer, and a contemplative nun-monk.

Her dedicated practice involved sitting with and learning from esteemed masters such as Eckhart Tolle, the celebrated author of "The Power of Now," Mooji, the beloved Guru at Sahaja Ashram, and Monk Bhasakorn, her revered Master Karma Teacher. These experiences guided her on an extensive world pilgrimage, which laid a strong foundation for her evolving skills as a teacher, author, and storyteller. In addition to these pursuits, she co-owned two wellness retreat centers, one located in the bustling city of Chicago, Illinois, USA, and the other nestled in the serene surroundings of Kelowna, BC, Canada.

Maggie’s earlier years were notably influenced by her father, who was a racer himself. She then became a trained chef at the prestigious French Culinary School in Vancouver, Canada, known as Perrier Dubrulle, which inspired her to open a catering company named Al-A-Cart. Her passion for wisdom led her to Seneca College in Toronto, where she honed her artistic abilities in interior design, eventually co-owning a successful renovation company based in Chicago. Completing her quest for insights, she spent four transformative years as a nun-monk at a renowned Jungle Temple located in Northern Thailand.
