Koel Thomae stumbled into entrepreneurship when she discovered a delicious Australian yogurt and became determined to introduce it to the US market. Despite having no background in the dairy industry, she obtained a license, teamed up with a Colorado dairy farmer, and launched Noosa Yoghurt. The brand quickly gained popularity, but Koel faced challenges, including operational issues with a major retailer and disagreements within her partnership. Through her determination, strategic investments, and eventually selling the company, she transformed Noosa into a multi-million dollar brand before stepping away from the business.
