The Sweet Rise of a Maker Mama: Iona of Little B Confectionery

#53: Today on RISE with LJ & Barb, we’re serving up something sweet—and no, it’s not just the caramels (though those are divine). We're joined by the wildly talented and endlessly inspiring Iona, the creative force behind Little B Confectionery. From handcrafting swoon-worthy sweets to juggling motherhood and running a small biz with big heart, Iona is a true multitasking marvel. We’re talking caramel dreams, creative hustle, and what it really takes to build a brand from scratch—while raising tiny humans at the same time. Grab a treat and settle in—this episode is equal parts heartwarming and laughter-inducing. Let’s welcome the lovely Iona to the pod!
