Kelly, 42, began the chat and told her: 'I'm so excited for you but you're gonna be missed, it's gonna be weird!'. Hoda replied: 'It's gonna be weird for me too. I'm terrible with goodbyes and I like change, but the goodbye part is hard for me. 'I think it's because when you're madly in love with something, but you also know that it's time for something new, that's where it gets hard for me,' she continued.

Talking about her next move, the mother-of-two revealed: 'I kind of got hooked in the wellness space a couple of years ago. 'I started doing stuff that I thought seemed woo-woo and weird, and then all of a sudden as I was doing it I was like, "Wait, I feel calmer, I feel better."'.

'So, I am starting a wellness app and company that will involve retreats and a podcast and all kinds of things that we can get together, do things that I love. 'And when you're done, it's not like going to Mexico with your girls - which is fun - but this is something that when you leave, you'll go, "Oh my gosh. I feel transformed, I feel different.".
