Hoda Kotb appeared on the Today show, surprising viewers and maybe even a few of her co-stars. She departed as an anchor from NBC’s morning program earlier this year, after seven years as a main anchor and 18 years hosting Today’s fourth-hour program.

"You get one life, that's all," Hoda said while discussing her latest book, "Jump and Find Joy." "That's it. It's ready for the taking, but it takes a jump."
