Awakin Calls

Exploring inner journeys to expand outer edges.

"You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete."

— Buckminster Fuller

A Gathering of Hearts and Minds

Awakin Calls is a global podcast that explores the inner journeys behind outer change. Every week, we hold space for remarkable individuals — from Nobel laureates to local pioneers —to share not just what they do, but who they are becoming.

Unlike traditional interviews that focus solely on accomplishments, our conversations dive into turning-point stories, moments of doubt and discovery, and the personal transformations that accompany meaningful work in the world. We believe that real change begins within.

"When I was on the call, I felt an activated energy much in the way of connecting to the chi field when I practice with others. I've done countless podcasts. I've not experienced this before. It's a phenomenal community you all have cultivated—energetically alive."

From Broadcasting to Deepcasting

Broadcasting reaches minds. Deepcasting unlocks hearts. Awakin Calls isn't about amplifying agendas—it's an invitation into a fundamentally different process, one that leads with inner transformation and trusts in its ripples to change the world.

📡 Broadcasting

  • One-to-many amplification
  • Information traveling mind-to-mind
  • Metrics of reach and impressions
  • Efficient, but lacks depth of connection
  • Relationships as means to an end

💫 Deepcasting

  • Heart-to-heart ripples
  • Ideas flowing through the web of consciousness
  • Metrics of transformation and emergence
  • Regenerative and relational
  • Relationships as ends in themselves
"If broadcast uses fiber optic cables to get information to our minds, deepcasting uses the web of consciousness—heart-to-heart-to-heart—to unlock a cascading domino effect that transforms the world in non-linear and exponential ways."
— Inspired by Vinoba Bhave

How a Call Unfolds

Each conversation is co-created by a global team of volunteers—hosts, moderators, scribes, and producers—in a spirit of service and kinship. We organize our processes in accordance with the principles we seek to lift up.

1

Live Conversation

Every Saturday at 8:00 AM Pacific, we host a moderated dialogue that explores the guest's inner journey alongside their outer work.

2

Community Participation

Listeners from around the world submit questions and reflections. We regard all participants—speakers and listeners alike—as co-creators in the dialogue.

3

Long-Tail Impact

Each call is archived with audio recordings, transcripts, and blogs—accessed tens of thousands of times over years, continuing to ripple outward.

Part of Something Larger

Awakin Calls is one expression of a broader experiment in gift culture. ServiceSpace incubates projects that work at the intersection of technology, volunteerism, and inner transformation.

From Nobel Laureates to Neighborhood Heroes

Our guests have ranged from Pulitzer Prize-winning writers, innovative philanthropists to YouTube influencers to Nobel Laureates to corporate CEOs to local pioneers engaging directly within their own communities. What unites them is a commitment to transformation—inner and outer.

We don't just feature people for their accomplishments. We hold space for them to share the struggles, the doubts, the moments of grace that shaped who they've become. Every conversation is an invitation to go deeper.

🎤 Our Guests

Awakin Calls feature turning-point stories and hold space for speakers to open their hearts about the inner journeys that accompany their outer head-and-hands work. From public changemakers to everyday heroes engaging directly within their communities—each brings a unique window into what it means to live with purpose.
