#51: Rebecca Mabbett shares her journey of leaving college to launch her fashion app, R Reflections. Rebecca talks about the struggles of starting a business without previous knowledge or experience and how her competitors are predominately male owned companies with financial backing.

Rebecca's company R Reflections is a virtual clothes fitting room app. The app allows consumers to be the models by trying on the clothes to determine whether an item of clothing suits them, their body shape and size, all before purchasing.
