They say just "fake it 'til you make it"... Well, Jane's living proof it works.
Jane didn't just fake her way through the world of finance, but pretended to go to a job (which no longer existed) and hid this from her parents for two whole years...  
Jane Lu quit her day job as an Accountant to become the founder and CEO of Australian online fashion retailer, Showpo… a company created in her garage which now rakes in an eye-watering $100 million annually. 
Labelling herself as ‘The Lazy CEO’, Jane is anything but… and the story of how she built her own fashion label shows no matter how many speed bumps and setbacks are in your way, there’s always another way around.

Balancing Books to Fashion Brand CEO with Jane Lu

Let’s be honest… on bad days, we’ve all dreamt of marching into the boss's office and saying with undeniable conviction, “I quit”.
There are days when we want to throw in the towel, when we imagine what could’ve been if only we’d wandered down a different career path.
Despite what you may think, it’s never too late to make a change, to reinvent yourself, to follow your dreams… just like Cathrine Mahoney did.
Cathrine left her cushy job as a celebrity publicist to make it as an author. Spoiler alert - she got the book deal and published her first book, Currently Between Husbands, and on top of that, she also started a podcast.
So, I Quit My Day Job, hosted by Cathrine Mahoney, is a podcast inspired by people from all walks of life who share one thing in common; they took a leap of faith and quit their day jobs in pursuit of their dream gig.
From Hairdresser to Crime Scene Cleaner, or Media Sales to Yogi, each episode is a celebration of those who bravely tossed it all in and followed their heart.
