PHILADELPHIA - s4story -- After more than five years of podcasting, this Philadelphia-raised podcast host is one step closer to a national platform that could amplify her faith-based message.

Coach B has advanced to the Top Five in her group in the national Top Host 2026 competition, presented in association with iHeartRadio and Ryan Seacrest. What began as a competition involving 86 contestants in her individual group has narrowed to just five. Coach B currently holds the number three position and is preparing for a critical elimination round on Thursday, November 12, 2026.

For Coach B, this opportunity represents much more than winning a competition. It is about expanding the reach of a message she has spent more than five years sharing.

A DAUGHTER OF PHILADELPHIA

Coach B was born in Alabama and raised in Philadelphia.  Philadelphia is where she was raised, educated, developed her roots, and continues to call home.

Raised in North Philadelphia, she is a graduate of John W. Hallahan Catholic Girls High School. Her connection to the city extends beyond her upbringing. She continues to serve and remain connected to her local community, including her church home, Greater Exodus Baptist Church, under the leadership of the Rev. Herbert H. Lusk III.

MORE THAN FIVE YEARS OF PODCASTING WITH A PURPOSE

Coach B began her podcasting journey in March 2021 with the launch of her original podcast, Get Unstuck and S.E.X.Y.

In June 2025, the podcast evolved and was rebranded as The Christ-Centered Single Podcast, reflecting Coach B's growing passion for creating a faith-centered space specifically for women, particularly women ages 35 and older, navigating singleness, relationships, healing, and purpose.

For Coach B, podcasting is not simply about having a microphone or building an audience. It is about having an opportunity to make a difference.

FROM 86 CONTESTANTS TO THE FINAL FIVE: A CALL TO PHILADELPHIA

The journey to the Top Five has been exciting, humbling, and filled with gratitude. Beginning with 86 contestants in her individual group, Coach B has continued to advance through multiple rounds of competition.

Now, with only five contestants remaining in her group, she is asking her Philadelphia family, friends, supporters, churches, community organizations, and local businesses to rally behind her.
