Hoda Kotb: Embracing Wellness and Family After ‘Today’
Hoda Kotb has been a staple of morning television for nearly three decades, but recently she announced her decision to leave the ‘Today’ show after nearly 30 years with NBC News. As she prepares for this new chapter in her life, Hoda is filled with excitement for the opportunities that lie ahead, particularly in the realm of wellness and spending quality time with her children.
After waking up at 3 a.m. for years to host the morning show, Hoda is looking forward to a more relaxed schedule. She plans to wake up at 5:15 a.m., begin her day with a SoulCycle session, and enjoy leisurely mornings with her daughters, Haley Joy and Hope Catherine. Her mornings will include feeding her kids breakfast and accompanying them to school, all while savoring her coffee.
While she has yet to disclose specific details about her future projects, Hoda is enthusiastic about continuing her work in wellness. At her recent Making Space event held at the Miraval Austin Resort and Spa, she hinted at exciting initiatives focused on making wellness accessible to everyone. “There’s no meat on the bones, but we are working towards some things that I think are going to be really exciting and fun,” she stated.
Hoda has also embraced self-care practices, integrating breathwork, meditation, and regular exercise into her routine. She believes that taking time for oneself is essential for being a better parent and friend. “We think by spending time on ourselves or being selfish, and that’s a myth,” she explained. “You’re a better mother, you’re a better partner, you’re a better wife, you’re a better friend.”
As Hoda steps back from her role on ‘Today,’ she is eager to immerse herself in family life and rediscover her rhythm. She looks forward to being present for her children’s activities, such as field trips and school pick-ups. “It’s just a way of recalibrating life,” she expressed, highlighting her excitement for this new phase.
Hoda Kotb’s transition from morning television to focusing on personal wellness and family life reflects a broader trend of individuals prioritizing self-care and meaningful connections as they move through different life stages. Her journey serves as an inspiring reminder of the importance of taking time for oneself and embracing the joys of family life.
