Meghan Markle Podcast: First Episode Talks About 'Ambitions,' Features Serena Williams
The "Archetypes" will air 12 episodes in total for its first season. It is partnered with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's "Archewell Audio Production."
The much-awaited podcast of the Duchess of Sussex premiered on Tuesday and features Serena Williams, a professional tennis player.
The podcast started with Markle explaining how she understood the world when she was just young. She said that growing up in Los Angeles, California, she saw a commercial that changed the way she understands her "place in the world."
The ad is all about boxing the woman with the future of being in charge in the kitchen specifically washing dishes which Markle completely disagrees with.
Williams, who was a tennis queen, shared her struggles in achieving her ambition just because "fear" hinders her to be "HERSELF," but thankfully she overcome her fear and get the work done as a professional athlete.
In a lengthy podcast discussion, the two discussed how a man and a woman are being compared to which female is in a disadvantageous position.
The discussion ended with Markle saying, "The misconception is that if you are an ambitious woman you must have an agenda..."
She also highlighted that the notion of ambition comes with many judgments and nuances, especially for women.
Adding that if you are an ambitious woman it only means that you are not afraid of anything though "fear" still exists according to Williams.
The first episode was just released after five months after the confirmation of the "Archetypes" podcast in March. And for the next guest, singer Mariah Carey, the "Queen of Christmas." will be joining the podcast with Markle.
Meanwhile, the wife of Harry posted the episode description saying that Markle will jump into the "labels" that try to hold women back, and along the way, the podcast will serve as a way to know how "archetypes" can impact one's life in anyways.
The podcast appears to be about women's empowerment amid discrimination and stereotyping though we are living in a modern-day era.
And to address issues she said that she will be talking to people who are the smartest, funniest, most passionate women and people she knows.
In 2020, Harry and Markle sealed their deal with Spotify months after signing a similar deal with Netflix.
