Since announcing in September she’s departing Today in the coming months after nearly 17 years, Hoda called her final few months of co-hosting a “slow goodbye,” adding, “It can almost be really grueling. It’s sort of like a strange process, which I wasn’t quite prepared for.”
However, she already knows exactly how she’ll be spending her free mornings when she finally doesn’t have to wake up at 3 a.m. every weekday.
“I’ve found out, in my town, there’s a 5:30 Soul Cycle class which, I’m going to start,” Hoda—who is mom to daughters Haley, 7, and Hope, 5, with ex Joel Schiffman—revealed. “I’m going to spend it with humans, then I’m going to go back and feed my kids breakfast and I am going to make a coffee to go in my Yeti. I’m going to walk my kids down the beautiful streets to their school and I’m going to kiss them goodbye.”
