Elle Macpherson is a supermodel, actress, and entrepreneur. Nicknamed "The Body" at the height of her modeling career, Macpherson appeared to have it all - but looking back, she says she didn't appreciate herself in her twenties and thirties, struggling with addiction and eventually entering rehab for alcoholism. Macpherson's sobriety renewed her commitment to health, and in 2014 she launched her wellness brand, WelleCo. Just three years later, after being diagnosed with breast cancer, she underwent two lumpectomies and chose a holistic approach over conventional treatment. Macpherson sat down with Hoda to talk about her career, her wellness journey and why she feels more alive than ever.
