Chicago-based interior designer Alison Victoria is best known as the host of Windy City Rehab, but she's made plenty of appearances (perhaps a record-breaking amount) on other HGTV shows, including Battle on the Beach (her team won Season 2), Ty Breaker and Season 1 of Rock the Block. Before making her way to HGTV, she starred in DIY Network’s Kitchen Crashers, establishing herself as a must-watch TV personality. She's the queen of glamorous, modern designs and posesses a remarkable work-hard, play-hard perspective on life.

Chelsea Houska DeBoer has been an inspiration to young women and moms all over the world since her debut on MTV’s Teen Mom 2. Now, she has more than 6.5 million followers on Instagram and her own HGTV show, Down Home Fab. Guiding clients through the renovation and design process is time-consuming as it is, but Chelsea and her husband Cole DeBoer are also raising four kids, managing their home goods brand, Aubree Says, and taking care of their farm animals.

Real estate and design expert and author Christina Hall has made a name for herself on HGTV, starring in HGTV’s Flip or Flop and Christina on the Coast over the years.

The duo won Season 3 of Rock the Block. Despite her serious real estate and design prowess, Egypt is also quite the jokester, which is evident in her appearances on Brother vs. Brother: No Rules. Egypt was also honored by 100 Black Women as a real estate trailblazer and has been featured in Forbes, Fast Company, Black Enterprise, Ebony, Essence, Rolling Stone and Architectural Digest.

Erin Napier is the co-host (alongside her husband, Ben Napier) of HGTV's Home Town. In the small town of Laurel, Mississippi, Erin uses her background in art and graphic design, paired with her love of home restoration, to transform old homes. Fans can't get enough of her style — interiors and fashion. When she's not working on a renovation, Erin spends ample time with her two daughters, at her and Ben's shop Laurel Mercantile, or writing. In 2022, she penned her first children's book, The Lantern House. Before that, she and Ben authored Make Something Good Today, which became a New York Times best-selling book. It's no wonder she was dubbed one of Fortune’s 50 Greatest Leaders List in 2021. Erin and Ben have also set out to restore towns across America in their spinoffs Home Town Takeover and Home Town Kickstart. Sheesh.

This female phenom first showed us her power moves in the popular Netflix series Selling Sunset, where she sells luxurious million dollar properties for The Oppenheim Group.

British-Canadian designer and businesswoman Hilary Farr is one of the most iconic HGTV hosts, thanks to her long run on Love It or List It in which she transforms dated spaces into beautiful rooms in an effort to get homeowners to stay in their current homes. The show has kept her busy since 2008 (!), but in 2022, she tacked another job onto her resume when she debuted in her very own solo HGTV design series, Tough Love With Hilary Farr. Hilary also runs her own interior design firm, Hilary Farr Designs, and recently renovated a new home for herself. (It's obviously stunning.)

Now, she shows off her quick thinking, building and design skills in Help! I Wrecked My House, where she helps homeowners fix their major DIY mistakes. She does this all while raising her daughter Hazel, but her talents don't stop there. You may recognize her as the winner of Rock the Block Season 1. Since then, she's flipped a plethora of homes, including a cabin she renovated in just six weeks. It eventually ran on the cover of a recent issue of HGTV Magazine, which Jasmine also guest edited.

What do Survivor: One World and HGTV have in common? Kim Wolfe. This professional designer and star of Why the Heck Did I Buy This House? won season 24 of Survivor before setting her sights on winning homeowners' approval. She's a self-made businesswoman in every sense of the word, and we think it's her competitve nature that makes her such a force in the design world. As a wife and mother of three, there is nothing this self described "yes guy" can't do.

New England-based designer Kristina Crestin is renowned for her cozy, farmhouse-chic home designs, which she creates with her all-women interior design team at Kristina Crestin Design.

After debuting in Flip or Flop Nashville and serving as a judge on Rock the Block (she later went on compete on the show herself — twice!), Page nabbed her own series, Fix My Flip, in which she navigates overzealous flippers through the complicated home renovation process.
