Square Peg Round Hole
Most people are performing a version of their life that looks right, sounds right, and costs them everything.
The meetings, the marriages, the ministry — nodding along to things they stopped believing years ago. Waiting for someone to say out loud what everyone in the room already knows.
Square Peg Round Hole is for those people.
Raw, confrontational, honest conversations on authenticity, identity, and the cost of performing a life that was never yours. Hosted by Timothy Eldred—transformation architect, author, speaker, and coach with 35 years in the work most people avoid.
For people done pretending.

Ep.10 | Stop Conversations from Becoming Confrontations
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Conversations don’t have to be confrontations. They can simply be honest, transparent, and vulnerable dialogue. But how do you create conditions for productive discussions? Simple. You come to the table ready to listen and learn something new about the other person. And you come without the need to prove a point.
This week on Episode 10 of Square Peg Round Hole, I invite you into an authentic conversation I had recently with my friend and colleague, Erica Schimelpfenig, President of YouthWorks. Erica and I began this discussion a couple of years ago, and I have been anxious to return to the dialogue ever since—because I want to understand her point of view.
As you'll hear, Erica and I come from two different worlds. She is a woman of color. And I am a white man. But we share a similar outcome and objective—to make sure no one feels alone. So Listen if you want your thoughts challenged. Listen if you want to hear transparent points of view. Listen if you want to make our planet a better place for people to live!
Send us a text message. We'd love to hear from you!
