Let’s be honest: owning a home can feel a lot like being managed by a very demanding boss. Between the urgent repairs, the soaring costs of maintenance, and that nagging feeling that you should be renovating something, it’s easy to feel like your house is running your life instead of the other way around.

To help you reclaim your weekends (and your sanity), we are thrilled to announce the launch of “Own It with Angie Hicks.” Drawing on over 30 years of experience listening to the hopes and headaches of homeowners, Hicks hosts candid, practical conversations with industry titans, financial gurus, and real homeowners to help listeners regain control of their homes and their peace of mind.

Cutting Through the Noise of Homeownership

If you’ve ever stared at a leaky faucet or a dated kitchen and wondered, "Is this actually worth fixing, or should I just delay it?"—this show is for you.

Angie Hicks has spent over 30 years listening to the hopes and headaches of homeowners. She knows that today’s market is tougher than ever, especially for a younger generation of owners who are tackling bigger projects with higher stakes. According to Angi’s latest State of Home Spending Report, younger homeowners are taking on a growing share of home project spending, often facing urgent decisions about where to invest their money. Whether you’re staring down a massive renovation or just trying to figure out which repairs are truly non-negotiable, Angie and her guests are here to help you cut through the noise and make the call that's right for your life.

“There’s a lot nobody tells you about owning a home. This podcast is about cutting through the noise, having honest conversations and helping people feel more confident that the decisions they’re making are right for them.”
