    Advice for reapplication interview

    @bekahjayne What did you say in your new application that showed you made progress? It may be that which got you the interview. I would get the ideas down to one or two. Have you got any validation for a pivot? Or is it just an idea? Because at that point, I would hit the reset button and...
