We lead others to love & God. We have been through conflicts that almost broke us, but through Gods grace, we are better than ever.
We would like to thank you for supporting The Franklins in this year's competition. Your participation allows us to aid both the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank and Oceana in their respective missions to support hunger relief and ocean conservation.
We met at the gym but didn’t talk much—just a social media add and a few likes. Months later, we ran into each other at a different gym. He slid into my DMs, invited me to his workout class, and the rest is history. What started with fitness turned into something deeper. Now our relationship is rooted in health, hustle, and most importantly, God.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?One of our favorite memories is getting gelato every night on vacation—trying new flavors, laughing, and soaking up the sunshine. We bonded over our shared love of fitness, food, and those quiet cuddle moments after long days. That trip brought us even closer, as we got to know each other on a deeper level while enjoying the sweet, simple things together.
What would you do with $20,000?With $20,000, we’d finally start the fitness business we’ve been dreaming about—combining our passion for health, movement, and helping others. We’d invest in equipment, branding, and a space to build a community centered on fitness, faith, and motivation. It’s more than a business—it’s our shared purpose and vision coming to life.
