The Duchess of Sussex is adding another podcast to her CV. Meghan confirmed the arrival of her new podcast with Lemonada Media, Confessions of a Female Founder, which will officially premiere on 8 April.
“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 wrote in a post caption. “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?)
A teaser trailer has also been revealed for the upcoming series, where Meghan describes the show as “a chat with female entrepreneurs and friends about the sleepless nights, the lessons learned and the laser focus that got them to where they are today.”
“We're diving into the highs — and the lows – and the kind of advice that turns small ideas into billion-dollar businesses,” Meghan continues. “And of course, we're going to get some girl talk!”
We then get some excerpts from upcoming episodes; one finder recalls her website growing at a rapid rate, while another confesses the struggle when funding started to dry up.
The 'girl talk' in question also sees the duchess delve deeper in some of her guests's personal lives.
“Are you saying you're not single now? Have I missed something in the past couple weeks? What's happening?" Meghan asks, before they both erupt into laughter.
“And through it all, I'm building a business of my own, and getting all sorts of practical advice along the way that I'm very excited to share with you. So join me for Confessions of a Female Founder from Lemonada Media, which by the way, is also female-founded. Launching April 8, wherever you get your podcasts,” she says in the preview. “Let's do this, ladies.”
Confessions of a Female Founder comes nearly three years after the duchess’ first podcast, Archetypes, premiered on Spotify. Meghan previously confirmed her new partnership with Lemonada Media in a statement shared to the official Sussex website last year.
“I’m proud to now be able to share that I am joining the brilliant team at Lemonada to continue my love of podcasting,” she said at the time. “Being able to support a female-founded company with a roster of thought-provoking and highly entertaining podcasts is a fantastic way to kick off 2024. Our plan to rerelease Archetypes, so that more people can now have access to it, as well as launching a dynamic new podcast are well in the works. I’m so eager to be able to share it soon, and am overjoyed to be joining the Lemonada family.”
The new podcast is also the latest in a series of exciting new ventures undertaken by Meghan, including her Netflix lifestyle series, With Love, Meghan, and her forthcoming lifestyle brand, As Ever.
