So that actually made it a lot more intense, because he really, really puts you on the spot.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou think that you have thought of every possible question that they could ask or every single critique, but no, they always find stuff that you were not expecting. So that makes it particularly difficult.\u201d<\/p> <p>During Brittany\u2019s interview with Soutar, she started crying as he compared her evidently smaller business plan to one he\u2019d written up.<\/p>\n<p>The business executive then questioned Brittany about her business idea of protein infused drinks, asking whether she believed it was an \u201cinvestable business\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>So, does she have any regrets about how the interview went?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, when I watched it back, I just wish that I hadn\u2019t allowed myself to be so nervous and kind of feel the pressure so much,\u201d she told <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">RadioTimes.com<\/a> and other press.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf it was now I would have been so much more powerful and confident with my answers, but I think that I just really allowed the pressure to get to me. And that\u2019s kind of my biggest regret from this.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\" image-handler__container--aspect=\"\" style=\"&quot;padding-bottom:\" calc=\"\">
