Entrepreneur Kimberly Cayce endured a brutal dressing down on national television recently when she went on ABC's Shark Tank to get money for KALYX Technologies, her sports bra business. Would-be investor Kevin O'Leary castigated her for bringing him a business that's "going to zero," and he sent her, and her team of athletic supporter hotties, right back out the door in tears.

That was then. Jason Cochran of our AfterShark post-show video series caught up with Cayce by Skype to find out whether she has been able to pick up the pieces after leaving the show empty-handed. Has she been able to get the cash she needs for her sports bra endeavor? Is she over that public rejection? The answer may surprise you.
