Former Today show host Tamron Hall is busy nurturing two bouncing babies: her adorable infant son, Moses, and a daytime talk show called (what else) Tamron Hall that's premiering across the country on different channels in national syndication on September 9. Both necessitate an early alarm and a no-frills plan that gets the 48-year-old anchor, producer, and journalist out the door and in front of the camera in no time.

Get in the Habit

Ive been in morning TV for most of my 25-year career, which meant waking as early as 3:30 a.m. For my new show, I have to be in the studio by 6:30 or 6:45. I practiced the call time when Moses was 3 days old to smooth out our routine.

Prioritize What Matters

After reading up on the news, I spend 30 minutes changing Mosess diaper, feeding him, and having our talk and music time. He likes the Spotify playlist Music Box Lullabies, and he is into hip-hop but also loves his Ariana Grande.

Embrace Multitasking

I know this is controversial: I brush my teeth in the shower. After that, I start my skin regimen. Ive masked every day since I was 27. Im in love with minences probiotic mask. Sometimes Ill walk the dog with the mask and sunglasses on and scare my neighbors.

Plan Ahead

My dad was in the military and taught me to pick out my outfits for the week, down to my underwear, on Sunday night. Its one less thing to think about first thing.

Fuel Up

Im a coffee person. Nespresso, one cup. And I love making a protein shake .

Find Zen

I do transcendental meditation at the studio. My friend and I started four years ago when we needed something to get that inner peace we all hope to have.
