Meghan Markle has returned with a microphone in hand, a few nostalgic memories, and a brand-new podcast designed to remind us she’s just like everyone else—if everyone else spent their childhoods selling prepackaged cookies and now calls it entrepreneurship.
In her latest venture, The Confessions of a Female Founder, Meghan revisits her so-called modest beginnings. And by “modest,” she means sharing old photos of herself donning a Girl Scout sash while proudly holding a box of Thin Mints, as if she’d personally revolutionized the concept of commerce.
In her Instagram post promoting the podcast, Meghan stated, “Being an entrepreneur can start young.” She added, “All these years later I’m still selling cookies,” suggesting her early cookie sales were a precursor to her current brand-building efforts.
Let’s be clear: selling Girl Scout cookies doesn’t quite qualify as founding a business. She didn’t develop the product, source ingredients, create a supply chain, or set the pricing. She simply stood outside a grocery store, table set up, asking passersby if they wanted a box. That’s not entrepreneurship—it’s a childhood extracurricular activity. But Meghan isn’t one to let facts interfere with a narrative.
In the same episode, she delves into her oft-repeated tale of growing up as a “Latch Key Kid,” painting a lonely picture of eating Jack in the Box while watching Jeopardy!—a story that has already been widely debunked. Previous interviews suggest a very different upbringing, one that involved chauffeured rides to private school and regular visits to television sets, courtesy of her father’s Hollywood career. But factual inconsistencies have never stopped Meghan before; she has a talent for transforming everyday experiences into sweeping tales of resilience.
Her ability to reframe the ordinary as extraordinary doesn’t stop there. Selling cookies becomes launching an enterprise; being alone after school morphs into emotional isolation worthy of a biopic. If this trend continues, she may soon claim to have founded the entire Girl Scouts organization following a childhood epiphany sparked by a sleeve of Do-si-dos.
Curiously, Meghan shared childhood photos that include other children—despite her ongoing insistence on strict privacy for her own kids. It’s hard not to notice the contrast: her children remain hidden from public view, yet she’s comfortable sharing images of others’ childhoods for the sake of her brand. Privacy, it seems, is selective.
This echoes earlier moments in her public image crafting, like when she labeled herself a feminist icon at age 11 for writing a letter to Procter & Gamble. The energy is the same, only now it’s been repackaged into a podcast persona who supposedly reshaped modern commerce with nothing more than a sash and a dream. And in a moment of ironic honesty, she closes her post by repeating, “All these years later, I’m still selling cookies.” That may, in fact, be the most accurate statement she’s made. The cookies are now metaphorical, of course—sold through sponsored content, strategic partnerships, and curated storytelling.
So what’s the takeaway here? According to Meghan Markle, peddling a pre-made product counts as being a business founder. A typical childhood becomes evidence of hardship. A posed photo proves ambition. And personal narrative equals professional success. By that logic, we’re all entrepreneurs. After all, didn’t we all sell candy bars for our school’s drama club at some point?
