At times, it feels like Meghan Markle has led a very circuitous life. Just a few years ago, she was an actress that was also trying to make her own lifestyle brand happen. Then, she married into British royalty…only to return to America after she and Prince Harry stepped back from royal responsibilities. And now, it looks like she’s making that lifestyle brand happen after all!
That’s because Meghan Markle’s long-awaited podcast “Archetypes” finally dropped on Spotify. But what is this podcast all about? What are the critics saying, and what does this mean for future media from Meghan? Let’s find out!
What is Meghan Markle’s podcast about?
Meghan Markle’s podcast “Archetypes” is about exploring the stereotypes that have served to repress women over the years. As part of this exploration, Meghan interviews strong women who have broken through cultural stereotypes and achieved success on their own terms.
As People reports, a press release for the podcast described it as a chance for Meghan to “investigate the labels that try to hold women back.” According to the release, Meghan will focus on her quest to “uncover the origin of these stereotypes and have uncensored conversations with women who know all too well how these typecasts shape narratives.”
This is a very lofty goal for Meghan and her podcast. But how well did the first episode really go?
