[REVISIT] I Loved You First - feat. Jenna Bush Hager

In honor of Mother’s Day this upcoming Sunday, we’re revisiting a conversation that celebrates the beautiful bond between parent and child. In this episode, Leslie sits down with the inspiring Jenna Bush Hager—author, journalist, and host of Today with Jenna & Friends.

A force in publishing and media, Jenna is the creator of the Read with Jenna Book Club, founder of the Thousand Voices imprint supporting emerging writers, and co-founder of her own production company.

Jenna and her twin sister Barbara recently co-authored their third book together, I Loved You First, a heartfelt children’s story that captures the magic of parenthood and the strength of sibling connection.

In this wide-ranging conversation, Jenna opens up about the inspiration behind the book, the power of sisterhood and female friendship, how it feels to host Today without her longtime co-host Hoda Kotb, and the mission behind her literary ventures. Plus, she and Leslie bond over their mutual love of karaoke!

Whether you’re a mom, a daughter, or someone who cherishes the women in your life, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
