In this episode, we’re unpacking Meghan Markle—yes, the Duchess of Sussex—as a modern feminist figure. From speaking out on women’s rights long before she joined the royal family, to pushing back against outdated expectations and relentless media scrutiny, Meghan’s journey has been anything but ordinary. We talk about why she deserves more credit, how her story highlights bigger issues around race, gender, and power, and why it's time we start seeing her in a different light.
