What does it take to keep growing under high pressure?

In this episode of The Bamboo Method, we sit down with Cameron Schieldt to talk about personal health, leadership, and the long game of building sustainable habits. Cameron is a marketing expert whose path led him from growing up on a Christian camp in Montana to helping launch marketing campaigns for global brands, working inside fast-moving agencies and international teams where patience, pressure, and consistency collide.

At the time of this recording, Cameron was serving as Senior Director of Strategic Operations at Child Bridge, a nonprofit that finds and equips families for children in Montana’s foster care system. Though Cameron stepped away from the role at the start of 2026, his leadership was pivotal to the organization’s growth, and his impact will be felt for years to come.

Cameron shares what it’s been like to lead through demanding seasons, prioritize personal health, invest deeply in the team he leads, and replace poor habits with productive ones. This conversation explores what it really means to show up well over time—and how small, disciplined choices compound into lasting impact.
