In this episode of The Money Hungry Mama, we’re serving up something extra sweet—and I’m not just talking about dessert. Meet Lexann Angerami, the heart and hands behind Little Mama’s Pops, a home-based cake pop business built from courage, creativity, and a whole lot of faith.

Lexann opens up about how becoming a mom of twins during the pandemic sparked her business idea, how imposter syndrome nearly stopped her from pressing “create account,” and how her quiet act of obedience led to a life-changing venture. From starting with messy cake pops at her sons' first birthday party to becoming a licensed cottage baker and collaborating with local businesses, Lexann’s story is a true masterclass in starting scared and trusting your gut (and God).

We talk about:

• The unexpected birth of a business from a birthday party

• The mental hurdles that come with starting something new

• How faith, community, and just saying yes can open doors you never imagined

• Turning creative passions into income without needing a website or business degree

• The beauty of building something that’s yours—on your terms, in your time

Whether you’ve ever felt lost, questioned your purpose, or wondered if you have something more in you, this one’s for you.
