Description

When Jane Pappin left her hospital shift one night, she didn’t just walk out the door. She walked straight into entrepreneurship and never looked back.


With over 35 years of nursing experience, Jane saw first-hand the gaps in post-discharge care and decided to do something about it. No side hustle. No safety net. Just a belief that she could create a better model.


In this episode, Marissa Hankinson sits down with the founder of Pop-Up Health to unpack the bold beginnings of the business, why aged care is everyone’s responsibility, and how Jane scaled a family-run operation to support hundreds of South Australians and eventually join the national Lumiere Care Network.


A no-nonsense conversation about purpose-led leadership, risk-taking, and backing yourself in an uncertain system.


Produced by Wavebreaker Productions.
