The professor, who's penned five New York Times bestselling books and can count A-list stars such as Reese Witherspoon and Gwyneth Paltrow among her fans, also featured on the couple's first Archewell Audio podcast for Spotify .

And the links between Meghan and the popular author don't end there; the Duchess on Saturday spoke at a bookstore co-owned by literary agent Jennifer Rudolph Walsh, who's worked alongside Brené.

Meghan was speaking at Oprah Winfrey's book club session at Godmothers bookstore in Summerland, located just miles from where she lives in Montecito.  The TV presenter is a close friend of Brené, with the pair having appeared on Oprah's network together.

But not only do Meghan and Brené run in similar circles, it's  clear the self-help guru to the stars has become somewhat of an inspiration for Harry's wife, who appears to be adopting some of the language and phrases used by the author.

With her husband in the audience, Meghan told the panel about how she's in her 'chapter of joy' and linked that to gratitude. 

It's an idea that Brené has often discussed, with the author revealing to Oprah's website previously: 'Joyous people are grateful people.'
