EP. 96 – Discipline Creates Safety w/ Jeffrey Shih | The Patty Show

What do Dungeons & Dragons, Meta leadership, and decades in tech have in common?

In Episode 96 of The Patty Show, Patty sits down with fellow Meta teammate (Metamate), community leader, and longtime friend Jeffrey Shih for a conversation about discipline, identity, leadership, and the routines that keep us grounded through life's constant changes.

Jeffrey has spent nearly three decades building a career around solving problems, supporting teams, and becoming the person people trust when things get complicated. From the early days of the internet to his current role as a Client Solutions Manager at Meta, Jeff has seen technology evolve while staying consistent in one thing: showing up, helping others, and finding solutions.

But this conversation goes far beyond tech.

Jeff shares stories about growing up Asian American, his college journey at UC Davis, his involvement in the AAPI community, and how his love for Dungeons & Dragons unexpectedly became part of his personal story. Patty and Jeff dive into the power of routines, why discipline can create safety instead of restriction, and how returning to the basics can help us navigate uncertain seasons of life.

This episode is a reminder that success isn't just about achievements or titles. It's built through consistency, curiosity, relationships, and the people who help hold the community together.

Whether you're building a career, leading a team, searching for balance, or simply trying to become a better version of yourself, Jeffrey's journey offers lessons on staying grounded while continuing to grow.
