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.

59. Integrative Health and Healing: Beyond Symptoms with Dr. Robin Perry Braun
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this Joy of the Hang episode, Sharon sits down with Dr. Robin Perry Braun—PhD in Integrative Medicine, MS in Psychology, and ordained minister—whose life’s work is helping people release the inner blocks that keep them from peace, joy, and purpose. We get into the “how”: energy and the nervous system, belief patterns, trauma imprints, and practical tools to support real-world change. Dr. Braun shares insights from 30+ years of practice and her books (Living Like a Son, Thrive, A Believer’s Guide to the Law of Attraction, 30 Days to Peace and Joy, Journey Through the Storm), plus what her certified modality looks like in action. If you’re curious about integrative, faith-forward, science-informed approaches to feeling better—and creating a life that actually fits—this conversation is your starting line.
