Early lifePotter was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, but was raised in Seminole, Florida.[1] Potter has lived in Orlando, Florida but currently lives in Nashville, Tennessee.[1] At the age of 12, Rachel began writing original songs to cope with her mother being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.[1] While working at Disney World, she completed a bachelor's degree in public relations and advertising from the University of Central Florida in 2008.[1] After graduating from college she moved to New York where she got a job singing in a wedding band.[1] Broadway careerIn 2003, Potter moved to Orlando, Florida.[1] Following a friend's suggestion, she auditioned for a singing job at Walt Disney World. Having never been to a theatrical audition before, Rachel came with a headshot (a picture of her singing into a microphone) and a resume with details of her tenure as an employee at the GAP.[1] Potter was cast as Ariel in the Voyage of the Little Mermaid.[1] She subsequently went on to perform as Belle in Beauty and the Beast, Nemo in Finding Nemo: The Musical, and a slew of other shows at Disney.[1] In 2008, she made it in the Top 15 in the MTV reality show The Musical – The Search for Elle Woods.[1] Potter played Wednesday Addams in the musical version of The Addams Family.[1] Later on, Potter was cast in the 2012 revival of Evita, in which she portrayed Peron's mistress, alongside Ricky Martin, Elena Roger, and Michael Cerveris.

Potter released her first EP, "Live the Dream".[1] She raised funds through an incredibly successful Kickstarter campaign to record her dream country project.[1] The "Help Me Live the Dream" concept resonated with people from near and far who helped Potter to exceed the original financial goal.[1] The official music video for "Live the Dream" was released on October 17, 2012, on Potter's channel.[2] Potter performed on CBS New York singing "Hold On To Me".[3] Potter began performing a series of concerts at Joe's Pub to promote "Live the Dream", she performed with Constantine Maroulis,[4] Ricky Martin, Elena Roger, Michael Cerveris, The Vanity Belles, and The Country Band.[5][6] Potter's unreleased single "The Verdict" was nominated for Best Country Song in the Independent Music Awards.[28][7] Potter was featured in mashup of Taylor Swift's "I Knew You Were Trouble" and Justin Bieber's "As Long As You Love Me" by VoicePlay, an Orlando-based 5-member a cappella group[8] as well as VoicePlay's cover of Chandelier (Sia song)[9] and The Phantom of the Opera (Andrew Lloyd Webber song) [10] In 2014, Potter launched a crowdfunded campaign using Pledge Music to fund her most recent album, "[https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/not-so-black-and-white/id966604482 Not So Black and White]."

The X Factor{{quote box|width = 33em |border = 1px |bgcolor=#FDDDE4 |quote = One of the best things about being on The X Factor is that so many people watched my video, and people were commenting, saying "I would buy her album even though I don't listen to country." That, to me, is the biggest compliment. Because I think I do have that crossover feel, and I hope that people who don't usually listen to that genre will be attracted to my sound. |align = right |source = — Potter, on X Factor journey.[11] }} Potter auditioned for the third season of The X Factor[12] with "Somebody to Love". Potter was picked in the Final 40, one of ten acts in the "Over 25" category mentored by Kelly Rowland chosen to move on to the next stage of the competition.[13] Potter sang "Irreplaceable" and was placed in chair 4. Since she was not switched out, she made the final four of "Over 25" category along with Lillie McCloud, Jeff Gutt and James Kenney.[14][15][16][17] During the first live results show on October 29, Potter sang "I Hope You Dance" receiving positive reviews; Kelly described Rachel as a "powerhouse and a delight", Paulina says Rachel has a "beautiful tone" and is original, describing the performance as brilliant from beginning to end and Simon said the song choice was perfect and she was even better than Lillie.[18] She was the first to be chosen to be in the final three along with Jeff Gutt and Lillie McCloud.[19] During week two, Potter sang "This Old Heart of Mine (Is Weak for You)", gaining mixed reviews; Demi said "You're so energetic and you bring so much to the stage." but Simon Cowell disliked it.[20][21] Due to graphics errors in which incorrect voting numbers were displayed on screen during the performance recap, there was no elimination that week; instead all the acts performed their "Save Me" songs on Thursday night and a public re-vote was conducted after the show. Potter sang "Anyway" by Martina McBride.[22] During week 3, Potter sang "Alone" by Heart, gaining positive reviews.[23] Potter fell to the bottom two alongside Khaya Cohen, where she was eliminated after only Rowland voted against Cohen. However Potter received more votes than Cohen meaning if the result went to deadlock, Cohen would’ve been saved. Performances on The X FactorRachel performed the following songs on The X Factor:
