Meghan Markle has announced her new podcast, “Confessions of a Female Founder,” set to launch on April 8. The Duchess of Sussex shared details about her latest project in a trailer released on Tuesday. This podcast is produced by Lemonada Media and aims to highlight the journeys of female entrepreneurs.
In the trailer, Markle introduces herself and the show, stating that she will have conversations with women who have built successful businesses. She mentions the struggles and lessons learned along the way, promising a mix of serious advice and light-hearted girl talk. “We’re diving into the highs – and the lows – and the kind of advice that turns small ideas into billion-dollar businesses,” she said.
The podcast features various guests who share their experiences, including stories of rapid growth and the challenges they faced. One guest mentioned how their website traffic soared, while another shared feelings of being broke and unsupported. Markle also engages in playful banter with her guests, making the conversations feel relatable and fun.
Markle expressed her excitement about sharing practical advice as she builds her own business. She emphasized that the podcast will be a supportive space, jokingly referring to it as a “dolphin tank” rather than a “Shark Tank,” suggesting a friendly environment for discussion.
This announcement follows Markle’s previous podcast, “Archetypes,” which was not renewed for a second season. Some social media users have criticized her new venture, pointing out similarities to an existing podcast called “Confessions of a CEO.” Despite the mixed reactions, Markle is eager to connect with listeners and celebrate female entrepreneurship.
The podcast will be available on various platforms, and Markle encourages everyone to join her on this new adventure.
