About this episode
Humanity stands at a threshold. Old systems are breaking down; new patterns of life are emerging. The Initiation invites listeners into the deeper story beneath this turbulence — a collective rite of passage for our species.
Hosted by Sebastian Dienst, entrepreneur, author and coach, the show explores how technology, money, ecology, and consciousness are converging to transform the human experience. Through soul-searching solo-episodes and conversations with visionary thinkers — from mythologists and scientists to spiritual teachers and economists — Sebastian traces the contours of our metamorphosis and asks what it means to rise to the occasion of our time.
Intellectually rigorous yet mythically alive, The Initiation is an invitation to participate consciously in the evolution already underway.
