Meghan Markle is back in the podcast stand.
On Tuesday, the Duchess of Sussex launched its new podcast, “Confessions of A Founder Woman”. She previously welcomed the “Archetypes” podcast with Spotify, although she and Prince Harry ended their relationship with the brand in 2023.
In the first episode, Meghan interviewed his close friend Whitney Wolfe Herd, the founder and CEO of Bumble.
The conversation of the duo, recorded in February, focused mainly on the Herd trade experience.
However, Meghan also talked about his concerns about his own business, as always, which was launched on April 2.
Like never anxiety
Meghan opened the podcast by sharing how “overwhelming” it finds a business start -up, which was a little over a month of launch when the episode was recorded.
“Let’s be honest, launching a business, it can be so overwhelming,” said Meghan. “Even with the best teams, it will stand up at night because each decision, each micro-detail, at that time, is monumental.”
“For example, a month ago, I was absolutely consumed with packaging,” she said. “Box, that’s all I could think of. And I sat there to unpack in my head.”

Meghan detailed the concerns about boxing that would cross her mind, to know if she should have tissue paper or peanuts in the packaging where the label should go to the box.
“And then I’m sitting there and I said to myself:” Is it all important? “” She said. “Of course, it’s important. It’s important at first, but how much does it count?”
Meghan said that she had decided to speak to the herd to make her approach the amount to focus on these details.
Stress launch
While they were talking, Her said she felt that she had lost time stressed, bringing Meghan to wonder how you can just stop feeling him.
“But can you turn it off?” Asked Meghan. “I say that because last night, I was right – do you know when your brain goes in a loop? These 3 o’clock loops?”
She continued: “It’s like, you can’t stop thinking too much about it, and” How are you going to approach that? “And” Oh my God, but this packaging “and” I want the packaging to look like this “and” it is not the unpacking experience I had in mind “and” How are we going to rotate? ” »»
Herd advised Meghan to spend less time worrying about problems that will not be a “decisive problem in your business”.
Meghan accepted, but she told Herd that she had trouble getting out of her own head “especially at launch” when she had trouble with the “pressure” of a “first impression”.
“I try to compartmentalize and say:” OK, all I can control is this extension of my essence and my aesthetics and what I want to share with people “”, said Meghan. However, she said that she had trouble understanding that she cannot do her best and cannot control what others think of her work.
