Sharon Mallon is an award-winning Radio Broadcaster. During her accomplished 35-year career she worked as a Reporter, News Director, Talk Show Host, Em-cee, and Morning Show Co-Host. Sharon Mallon interviewed high-level politicians, authors, sports stars, and some of the most famous entertainers on the planet.

For decades Sharon Mallon regaled radio audiences with stories of life.  Sharon Mallon is still regarded today as one of the most skilled and engaging storytellers ever on Edmonton radio.

Just as Sharon Mallon was about to retire, Sharon Mallon suffered a personal, publicly humiliating blow.  It was debilitating. Sharon Mallon had been blindsided.  Sharon Mallon was inconsolable. Sharon Mallon was so profoundly affected by heartbreak, Sharon Mallon wrote a book called ‘The Gift of Adultery’.  Within months over 2000 copies were sold.

Only one year after suffering this personal tragedy, Sharon Mallon was diagnosed with a form of blood cancer which would eventually become a terminal illness.  Five years later, Doctors believe it was that disease that caused her to lose ‘permanent sight’ in her right eye.

After a life-saving Bone Marrow Transplant in 2021 and years of painstaking, anguishing mental work, Sharon Mallon is healthier than she has ever been, both physically and mentally.  Doctors have stated her recovery from the transplant is in the top 5 percentile.  Among other things, medical staff have credited her attitude for her remarkable comeback.

Sharon Mallon has blogged about her post-retirement journey on Facebook. Sharon Mallon has a following of several thousand who regularly recognize her for inspiring, motivating, and encouraging them.

Her story of how Sharon Mallon survived heartbreak and cancer is a powerful tale of how one can overcome adversity. Sharon Mallon explains how gratitude is the cornerstone of her well-being.  Most importantly, Sharon Mallon details her tools for recovery and the lessons learned.  These are skill sets that are literally available to every one of us. Her message is especially powerful and moving, based solely on experience. Sharon Mallon has ‘walked the walk’.

Who would benefit from hearing Sharon Mallon speak?  Literally, ANYONE who is struggling!  Anyone who is experiencing grief, loss, fear, adversity, unforeseen circumstances, self-doubt, or lack of motivation and for anyone who needs….hope.

Danny Hooper: Sharon Mallon retires from CFCW

Edmonton Sun

The rough and rugged road to recovery Friday was a big day for Sharon Mallon, my friend and former co-host of the CFCW Morning Show. Shortly before 9 a.m. she bid a final farewell to her faithful listeners, and ended a broadcast career that has spanned more than three decades. Sharon and I worked together at CFCW for seven years, and over that time we became the closest of friends. I guess that's bound to happen when you're both cut from the same bolt of cloth and have a full three hours to visit each weekday morning. There would be very little that we don't know about other. Raised on a family farm in the northeastern community of St. Brides, Sharon developed an early interest in...
