Meghan Markle promises 'billion-dollar' business advice in first look at new podcast

foxnews.com:

Meghan Markle is ready to dish it out with her podcast listeners. On Tuesday, the Duchess of Sussex – along with Lemonada Media – dropped a trailer for her new podcast, "Confessions of a Female Founder." "I'm Meghan, and this is ‘Confessions of a Female Founder,’ a show where I 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," Markle says in the trailer. "We're diving into the highs – and the lows – and the kind of advice that turns small ideas into billion-dollar businesses," she adds. "And of course, we're going to get some girl talk!" An unnamed guest jumps in and says, "It just started climbing and climbing, and there was 5,000, 10,000 people on our website." Others are heard describing their setbacks. "I'm broke, and no one is calling me," one says, while another guest quips,"I knew in that moment that I'd rather stand for something than sell a whole ton of product and stand for nothing." But the podcast won't be all business.

Markle and her guests will inevitably engage in some "girl talk" as well. "Are you saying you're not single now? Have I missed something in the past couple weeks?

What's happening?" Meghan asks a guest. "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. "Let's do this, ladies." "This is not ‘Shark Tank,’ think of this as 'dolphin tank.' These are very friendly waters, it's all going to be good," she concludes.
