Meghan Markle Just Made a Huge Career Announcement That I Didn’t See Coming

And it is going to involve "eye-opening" confessions

First, Meghan Markle returned to Instagram. Then, she re-launched her lifestyle brand, As Ever. And now, the Duchess of Sussex, 43, is back in her podcasting era. 

Today, Markle revealed that she’s launching an all-new podcast, titled Confessions of a Female Founder, in partnership with Lemonada Media. The first episode will debut on April 8, and it will feature the royal having candid conversations with female business owners.

Markle announced the exciting news on Instagram by sharing a candid photo of herself sporting a blue blouse. The caption read, “I’m so excited to share with you something else I’ve been working on: ‘Confessions of a Female Founder,’ my new podcast with @lemonadamedia!”

She continued, “I’ve been having candid conversations with amazing women who have turned dreams into realities, and scaled small ideas into massively successful businesses. They’re opening up, sharing their tips, tricks (and tumbles), and letting me pick their brains as I build out my own business, As Ever. It has been absolutely eye-opening, inspiring…and fun! (Because what’s the point if we can’t have some fun on this wild adventure?)”

As you may recall, this isn’t Markle’s first podcast. The duchess previously launched Archetypes back in 2022 where she interviewed everyone from Serena Williams to Mindy Kaling. Although the podcast ended after one season, Markle did promise that she would return to podcasting in some capacity so her announcement isn’t really that surprising. What does surprise me, however, is the timing—no sooner did Markle launch her brand-new Netflix seriesWith Love, Meghan, than the show was confirmed for a second season. Talk about busy! It seems like there’s no stopping the Duchess of Sussex and I, for one, am here for it.
