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 Wednesday!
