219. Lauren 'Lolly' Anderson on Turning Creativity into Cash: The Power of Sugar Cookies


Listen Later

Hey Rainmakers! Chelsey and Stephen here, and this episode is just plain sweet—literally. 🍪 We're talking with Lauren "Lolly" Anderson, the creator behind Lolly's Home Kitchen, who went from corporate life to cashing in on her creativity with sugar cookies that are not only gorgeous but totally profitable. If you've ever wondered if your passion project could actually make money—this one's for you.

Lolly shares the real story of how a holiday hobby turned into a business that lets her work from home, bless her family financially, and teach others to do the same. What started with decorated cookies for friends and family quickly became a word-of-mouth hit, and before she knew it, she had more orders than time. That's when she realized—this wasn't just baking. It was business.

We talk about pricing with confidence, the mindset shifts required to charge what you're worth, and how important it is to set boundaries (especially when friends start asking for freebies!). Lolly also opens up about teaching other women to start their own cookie businesses and how empowering it's been to watch them unlock a new level of confidence and income.

This episode is a masterclass in turning your creativity into cash—and it's so much more than just cookies. If you've ever had a spark of an idea, a creative outlet you love, or a dream of doing something from home that actually works—Lolly's story will light a fire in you.
