Precision With a Frisbee. Discipline in the Gloom. – Bambi

Summary

It started with a frisbee.

Before he was a Site Q. Before he was a software founder. Before the early mornings in the gloom.

In this episode of The Glue-OOM, Paul Yoder, known as Bambi, shares the legendary story of how hitting a deer with a frisbee earned him his name… and how choosing discomfort reshaped his leadership.

We talk about The Comfort Crisis, the isolation of entrepreneurship, leading when you don’t feel ready, walking through miscarriage and Crohn’s with your family, and the moment God told him, “I don’t need you.”

This isn’t loud leadership. It’s steady, 5:30AM discipline.

✅ Highlights

✅ The frisbee story that earned the name “Bambi” ✅ Why The Comfort Crisis pushed him into F3 ✅ Coffee, COT, and the power of real brotherhood ✅ “I don’t need you.” – the identity shift that changed everything ✅ Leading Beverly Hills without feeling ready ✅ Entrepreneurship, isolation, and the one-phone grind ✅ Fatherhood through miscarriage and Crohn’s diagnosis ✅ Why leaders must let others serve them
