Julia Marcum has built her career around the concept of love. Her popular blog, Chris Loves Julia, launched as a personal creative diary of renovation, home, marriage, and family—all of the very real parts of life that impact how you truly live in your home. Her deep passion for the process of renovation and documenting all the little details—the earned sweat equity and mishaps that happen in the journey of making spaces better and more personal—gives her content an approachability that inspires her fans to do it themselves. With her community following along as she updates her spaces, Julia believes that you can always make a space function better for you and budget is a construct we can all learn to work within. Listen in as we chat with the self-described homebody and explore the six kitchens she has renovated along with her husband, Chris.
