The Duchess of Sussex, 43, talked with Saujani, who is the founder of Girls Who Code, about running for office.
She ran as a Democratic candidate for Public Advocate in 2013 coming third in the primary.
Saujani explained: “I think we think as women that when we try something, especially something that we want so bad, and it doesn’t work out that it will break us.
“And we won’t be able to wake up the next day. We won’t be able to continue on.
“I think there is a sense that failure will cripple you.”
Meghan interjected: “Right that it will break you as oppose to break you open for the possibility of more.
“When it breaks open it leaves space and growth for so much more love, growth and resilience to pour in.”
Saujani also talked about stepping away from her non-profit organisation.
Episode one, which aired on April 8, was an interview with Whitney Wolfe Herde, who is the founder of Bumble and co-founder of Tinder.
But the episode failed to impress, with critics saying it offered “no substance”.
The Mail revealed how it only reached the top 19 on Spotify’s US charts.
The new series follows Meghan’s £18million podcast payout for Archetypes.
Spotify’s chief previously called her and Harry “f***ing grifters” for only producing 31 episodes.
