I'm Nicole Lapin, the only financial expert you don't need a dictionary to understand.

It's time for some money rehab.

In my ongoing coverage of the Silicon Valley crash, I had a listener reach out to me who

actually worked at Silicon Valley Bank and witnessed the downfall from the inside.

This listener and I have been in very close touch over the last week as things were falling

apart.

She has been sending me questions about deciphering the information she's been getting from

the company and what it means for her and together we've been trying to piece together

the picture of what will happen next for the employees at the bank.

Right now a lot of people are turning to industry insiders for answers on SVB's crash.

But the people who we really should be listening to now are the SVB insiders, the employees.

So today's guest is an SVB employee or was until the bank dissolved.

I cannot thank her enough for taking the time during this chaotic moment to share with

us.

In the edit by the way, we had to cut out some details that she shared with us about

her life and background to protect her anonymity.

But I really wish you could hear everything because I gotta tell you this listener is literally

super woman.

Anyway, enough preamble.

Here she is.

Thank you, amazing.

Thank you so much for taking the time out to chat with me during this crazy time.
