Meghan Markle has recently launched Archetypes, an original podcast on Spotify. In the first episode, the Duchess of Sussex has a casual chat to her friend and tennis champion Serena Williams about ambition in women.
The conversation, in very natural American English, is quite long (57:28), so it is recommended for C1 students and above.
