Joy of the Hang™
Joy of the Hang is more than a podcast — it’s a movement.
Hosted by Sharon Stevenson, former competitive bodybuilder and certified Health and Wellness Coach, this show explores the missing link in modern wellbeing: connection.
After years of studying the eight pillars of health — Physical, Emotional, Social, Intellectual, Environmental, Financial, Occupational, and Spiritual well-being. — Sharon discovered something profound. We can optimize every area of our physical health and still feel lonely. We can achieve, perform, and succeed… and still feel disconnected.
That realization changed everything.
Joy of the Hang was created as a platform for real people — leaders, entrepreneurs, creators, parents, reinvention stories, and everyday heroes — to share their journeys openly and honestly. Because stories matter. And when people feel seen and heard, they remember they matter too.
In a world more digitally connected than ever, we are facing a loneliness epidemic. Social isolation is quietly impacting our mental, emotional, and physical health. Joy of the Hang exists to push back against that reality.
Through meaningful conversations, shared laughter, and vulnerable storytelling, Sharon explores how relationships shape our wellbeing, leadership, resilience, and identity.
You were born to bond. Built to belong.
If you’re craving deeper connection, more intentional relationships, and a sense of community in your adult life — you’re in the right place.

Reach out through social media, email, and community events — your voice matters here.
Because the best moments in life are shared. And you don’t have to do this alone.

52. Burnout to Breakthrough: Executive Wellness with Linda Mullins
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, executive coach and Luxury Executive Wellness founder Linda Mullins shares how a 2007 burnout and an immersive fitness retreat transformed her life—and inspired her to build personalized well-being retreats, executive offsites, and board retreats that actually move the needle. We dig into root-cause coaching, trauma-informed leadership, and practical ways high performers can release what no longer serves them, regulate stress, and rebuild energy without sacrificing impact. If you’re leading a team (or leading yourself) through overwhelm, this one’s your blueprint for sustainable success—mind, body, and mission.
