REAL STORY. CLEAR CHOICES.
A School Speaker Students Can Connect With
Gabe Murfitt brings honest storytelling, humor, and CLEAR to school assemblies and student leadership events. You don’t control everything that happens. But your choices still matter, and they rarely affect only you. CLEAR helps you decide what to do next.
For middle school, high school, and college audiences, school districts, and student leadership programs. Based in Idaho. Available nationwide.
What Students Can Take Away
Gabe’s story starts the conversation. The goal is to help students connect it to their own friendships, setbacks, and everyday decisions:
- Make responsible choices: Recognize how their actions affect other people, whether or not they hold a leadership title.
- Respond to difficult moments: Take a considered step, ask for help, and keep working toward what matters while adapting their approach.
- Practice respect: Look beyond visible differences and treat their own dignity and other people’s dignity as non-negotiable.
CLEAR means Courage, Leadership, Endurance, Attitude, and Respect. These five principles give students a shared language for deciding what to do next.
School assemblies introduce the framework to a shared audience. Student leadership events focus on influence and responsibility. Disability awareness and inclusion can be part of the conversation about respect. Explore the speaking programs.
Experience That Connects With Students
Gabe began speaking as a teenager. Over decades, he has reached tens of thousands of students, educators, and community members. At the peak of his school speaking schedule, he delivered approximately 50–70 school presentations a year.
Today, CLEAR is a framework Gabe returns to in his own life—not just lessons from a story whose ending he already knows. Read Gabe’s story.
“On a scale of 1-10 Gabe was a 10! His content and message were both age appropriate, entertaining and engaging.”
Kevin, Middle School Principal, Dayton, NV
Woodland Public Schools’ February 2017 board report also documents Gabe’s assembly and positive student and staff feedback.
