The surprise series has dropped its first trailer and in it, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle can be heard stating: "This was inspired by Nelson Mandela, who once said: 'What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived, it is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.'"
As the synopsis states: "Live to Lead highlights the fundamental values, daily disciplines and guiding principles that leaders employ to motivate others and create meaningful change."
