Couric’s journey to loving herself has been hard at times.
“Someone said to me, ‘I have so many wrinkles,'” she toldPeople.
“I said, ‘I think wrinkles show a lifetime of laughing and smiling.’

Couric has started wearing less makeup, although she still relies on her mascara.
“Sometimes I’m neurotic about the way I look,” admitted toPeople.
“I try not to say, ‘I feel fat or look fat in this.’
It’s such a bad example for your kids.
