*Pitch Deconstruction Disclaimer: After some consideration, we’ve decided not to publicly share the Pitch Deconconstruction recordings. Pitch Decon’s are sacred. Founders need a safe place to practice and learn. If you pitched at a recent Pitch Decon and you want to review the recording, send us an email at info@thesdangels.com and we’ll get it to you.
