Hannah Brown âputting it all out thereâ with new podcast âBetter Tomorrowâ
After Bachelorette, “Dancing with the Stars” champion, “Special Forces” winner, author and YouTuber, you can add another layer to Hannah Brown’s media empire: Podcaster.
“Better Tomorrow with Hannah Brown” launched with a trailer this week, growing the Alabama native’s brand after a flurry of multimedia achievements that began in 2019 as a contestant during season 23 of “The Bachelor.” You can hear the first episode Wednesday, July 19.
“One of my biggest goals in this season of life is building real, true community,” Brown posted on Instagram. “So this is me, putting it all out there on my new podcast, ‘Better Tomorrow.’ I am so honored to hold this space for all of us to learn and grow together!”

Described as “a lifestyle podcast,” the show seeks to answer big questions like “Am I better today than I was yesterday? And how can I learn to be better tomorrow?”
The official description: “Each week, Hannah will build on those questions, discussing topics like confidence, love and making time for yourself, all through the relatable experiences of the ultimate Everywoman. There will be advice, intimate emotional explorations and reveals, and lasting takeaways. Hannah will push the envelope as she challenges, inspires, and guides herself and her audience across these topics through the lens of a progressive, empowered woman who even with her faith doesn’t know all the answers and is still actively defining and deciding what all that means.”

Brown has never hesitated to use her public platform for self-reflection, often looking inward and sharing openly about depression, family tragedies, medical scares and her own controversies.
The former Miss Alabama USA and Tuscaloosa native first landed on the reality TV radar during season 23 of “The Bachelor,” attempting to win the heart of Colton Underwood. She left the season during week seven, officially finishing seventh overall. Brown proved a fan favorite, bringing needed levity to the dating series and eventually influencing ABC producers to keep her on as a face of the franchise. She was later cast as lead of “The Bachelorette” immediately following Underwood’s season.
Blessed with a big personality, Brown was a surprise pick for the 15th season of “The Bachelorette,” but she quickly proved herself an assertive and lovable lead, strong-willed in her decision-making. Her season had multiple moments that proved important lessons for young women and men about gender politics, women’s rights, faith, Southern stereotypes and more.
She ultimately chose Jed Wyatt, the country singer from Nashville, but the engagement ended abruptly after it emerged that he had been in a relationship with another woman prior to and during his stint on the show. Other contestants from Brown’s season included Tyler Cameron, Luke Parker, Mike Johnson, John Paul Jones and future “Bachelor” lead Peter Weber.
Brown would then appear on ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars,” paired with professional dancer Alan Bersten, with whom she won the competition. In 2021, Brown released a book, “God Bless This Mess.” Brown has appeared on several reality shows since her debut on “The Bachelor,” including “Celebrity Dating Game,” “Lights Out with David Spade” and most recently Fox’s “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test,” a quasi-military training show she won along with former professional soccer star Carli Lloyd.
She also has a YouTube channel with more than 186,000 subscribers, though she hasn’t uploaded a new video since October 2021. The channel features lifestyle content including cooking demonstrations, beauty tips and glimpses into her weekly activities. The description now teases the new podcast, which she will upload to her YouTube channel each week: “Hey y’all and welcome to my channel! I am starting a new chapter in my life living in Nashville and hosting my own podcast ‘Better Tomorrow.’ Be sure to subscribe for new podcast videos here every Wednesday!”
Brown recently moved from Los Angeles to Nashville with boyfriend Adam Woolard.
