Joy Of The Hang: Connecting through Conversation
Sharon Stevenson invites you to 'Joy of the Hang,' where connection, storytelling, and meaningful dialogue come to life. Join her for inspiring conversations that make you feel seen, heard, and uplifted. New episodes every Wednesday!
After two decades running hotels and wrangling weddings, conventions, and the occasional Elvis impersonator, I stepped out from behind the scenes (still in heels) to grab the mic and start the kind of conversations I’ve always craved.
I’ve been the boss, the underdog, the single mom, the restaurant owner, the real estate broker, and now, your podcast bestie. My journey’s been anything but linear—but every chapter has taught me the same truth: connection is everything.
I started Joy of the Hang because I believe in meaningful dialogue, laughter that heals, and asking the questions most people are afraid to say out loud. Whether I’m talking with guests or flying solo, my goal is the same—to make you feel seen, inspired, and a little more human.
You’ll find no fluff here. Just honest stories, unexpected wisdom, and the kind of hang that lingers long after the episode ends.
Thanks for being here. You’re always welcome.
New episodes air every Monday and Thursday!

19: Designing Woman: Gretchen Bauer's Journey from Interior Designer to BSWANKY!
Join Gretchen Bauer, the visionary behind BSWANKY Bags, as she takes us on a journey from the world of interior design to creating one-of-a-kind luxury handbags. In this podcast, Gretchen shares her fearless and bold approach to design, drawing inspiration from the world around her and the exotic materials she incorporates into each piece. Every BSWANKY handbag tells a story, with each element meticulously handcrafted to create a piece that’s as unique as the women who carry them. No two bags are alike, as Gretchen continually pushes the boundaries of design by blending unconventional patterns, textures, and colors. From the art of craftsmanship to the legacy of luxury, this podcast explores the passion, creativity, and adventure that defines BSWANKY Bags—where standing out is always more adventurous than blending in.
