Today star Dylan Dreyer began her morning surrounded by her three sons before racing to 30 Rockefeller Plaza, where fans cheered as she joined Al Roker and Sheinelle Jones live on air. But what looked like a normal workday quickly transformed into something far more dramatic. By mid-morning, Dylan was dashing through New York traffic, boarding a flight, and somehow landing in Nashville just hours later — still smiling, still on camera. Between red carpets, country legends, and a whirlwind of live segments, the day became one of the most unpredictable of her career. But what happened next, after the cameras stopped rolling, is what had everyone talking back at NBC

Dylan Dreyer knows how to make every minute count — even when her day spans two cities and multiple roles. The Today cohost gave Us Weekly an exclusive look inside her whirlwind routine, and it’s clear her life is as full as it is fast-paced.

Her day begins well before dawn. At 4:30 a.m., she wakes up surrounded by her boys — Calvin, 6, Oliver, 3, and Russell, 2 — who often crawl into bed with her before she heads to 30 Rockefeller Plaza. By sunrise, Dylan is already in full swing at NBC Studios, greeting fans at the plaza before joining cohosts Al Roker, Sheinelle Jones, and Craig Melvin for the 3rd Hour of Today.

But her workday doesn’t end there. After filming wraps around 10 a.m., Dylan races to the airport, juggling her notes and scripts in the car as she prepares for her next assignment. That particular day, her schedule was anything but ordinary — she was en route to Nashville to cover the People’s Choice Country Awards.

By 2:30 p.m., she’s greeting the crew with a cheerful “Howdy!” from the historic Grand Ole Opry, where she preps for taped segments amid the whirlwind of activity. Then, at 4:30 p.m., it’s time for the glam team to work their magic. “It takes a village,” Dylan told Us Weekly, crediting her hair and makeup artists for transforming her from a jet-lagged traveler into a red-carpet-ready host.

As evening falls, she steps into the spotlight. At 6:30 p.m., Dylan hits the red carpet for the inaugural People’s Choice Country Music Awards, chatting with some of country music’s biggest stars — from Wynonna Judd to Little Big Town — before heading backstage to film exclusive interviews for Today. She later shared a few highlights on Instagram, giving fans a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes buzz.

Even after such a jam-packed day, Dylan still manages to wind down with grace. She ends her night “fresh-faced,” ready to reset and do it all again the next morning.

Her life is a testament to balance — juggling motherhood, career, and travel with relentless enthusiasm. Between early call times, airport dashes, and red-carpet interviews, Dylan proves that being a working mom in the spotlight is both a marathon and a miracle.

“Every day looks a little different,” she shared, “but that’s what makes it fun.”

For Dylan Dreyer, a day in her life isn’t just about chasing storms or headlines — it’s about chasing joy, wherever her story takes her next.
