We want you to email us your barndominium questions. 

Please send your questions to Megan@BarndominiumTour.com so we can answer them on next week's episode.

In this episode of The Build Life Podcast, Emily and Megan talk with Amber Culley, a Pennsylvania native in the midst of her steel frame barndominium home. 

WARNING   This episode was recorded in the Fall of 2022, and since then a lot has changed. Please check out Amber's instagram page @TheCulleyExperince so you can see all that theyve accomplished in this short time.

Amber's experience is unique, not only because her husband is a union iron worker, but because her build includes a basement, a converted bus, and a tiny house. 

These folks have done a little bit of everything, and done all of it with their young daughters in tow.

We hope you enjoy this week's look into The Build Life!

New podcasts drop every Thursday, but you can find us posting all week long on Instagram.
