Aside from running a new piece of Romex from my circuit breaker box
(which I can/will do), is there another way to get my power?

Probably not.


From another junction or switch box in the same circuit would be one way
but...

And yes, I did look and study the cables. It wasn't all that hard. I
think I only had 4 cables going to those 3 switches. Plus now I have
my exposed BK WE and ground sitting in there. So, to your point, I
will not have too many nuts and connections within.


If you have 4 separate pieces of romex coming in there and only 3 switches
then one of those should supply the neutral and constant hot you need.
It's hard to say for sure from here since there are a number of ways to
wire these arrangements but I'd take a second look.
