Behind every great team is a group of people who don’t always get the credit they deserve.

In this episode of Beam Boldly, Brooke sits down with Cameron “Camager” Mathis and Peyton Harbert, two college gymnastics managers whose roles go far beyond what happens on the competition floor. From early mornings and behind-the-scenes pressure to building trust with elite athletes, they share what it really means to serve a team without the recognition that often comes with it.

Cam opens up about going from a fan in the stands to a viral presence on the sidelines, and how quickly success can challenge your identity if you’re not grounded in who you are. Peyton shares her powerful story of overcoming Ewing’s sarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer, and the moment that completely transformed her faith and perspective on life.

Together, they talk about what it looks like to lead through service, stay rooted when no one is celebrating you, and trust that your role still matters.

This episode is a reminder that impact isn’t always acknowledged, and purpose isn’t always visible, but both can change everything.

Listen if you’re:

• Trying to understand your role when it doesn’t come with recognition
• Navigating pressure, identity, or comparison in a high-performance environment
• Learning how to stay grounded in your faith when life feels overwhelming
• Looking for perspective on how to serve others without losing yourself
