{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Meghan Markle offered some words of encouragement to a Smart Works' client before her upcoming job interview.
On Monday, the Duchess of Sussex took time out of her day to video call the woman from her new home in Los Angeles and speak to her about taking the next steps in her career.
Markle has been a patron of Smart Works since January 2019. The charity helps underprivileged women secure employment, offers coaching tips, and provides professional clothes for job interviews.

During the video chat, the former senior member of the royal family told the client she seemed "incredibly confident and prepared."
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}I know everyone here is so excited,” Markle said. “When I was reading about what your interests are, and especially you have a big focus in mental health as well, right? Psychology? I think that’s excellent.”
The client replied, "Thank you so much, that means so much to me." Markle wished her "the best of luck" and said her "fingers are crossed."
