Speaking with her fellow Today colleagues, she opened up about often struggling with "mom guilt," but that advice from Julia herself has helped her get out of it.

She detailed how the fellow mom-of-three's words were just what she needed to hear. "There are days where I just feel like I don't want to put in the extra effort. I just want to get to bedtime. I just need [them] to go to sleep," she admitted.

She said: "You want someone who can commiserate with you for a minute as opposed to, 'Oh, that happened to my kids a long time ago. You'll be fine.'"
