June 04, 20253 min read

Ever wondered if you could really turn your beauty side hustle into a six-figure business? At Bobbie Charles Academy, we’ve helped countless women do exactly that—often faster than they ever dreamed possible. Today, we’re sharing the real journeys, honest lessons, and powerful transformations of our graduates who started small and now lead some of Australia’s most inspiring beauty businesses.

Karen: From Burnout to Business Freedom

Karen came to us exhausted, working full-time “on the tools” in her own salon and feeling like her business was running her—not the other way around. She dreamed of more freedom, more income, and more time for herself.

Her transformation:

With our coaching, Karen went from working full-time to just one day per fortnight, drawing a $140,000 director wage—and eventually selling her business after her most profitable month ever. All of this happened in under six months.

“I never believed I could step back and still see my business thrive. The strategies, support, and confidence I gained at Bobbie Charles Academy changed everything for me.”
