Rohan Murphy

“Never Giving Up”

This session addresses never giving up.  Rohan has always lived a purpose driven life and he now shares his unique perspective on life with people.

Being born with deformed legs was a crushing blow to Rohan and his family.  At the age of four, his rare birth defect forced doctors to amputate both of his legs.  Doctors told the Murphy family that Rohan would never be able to take care of himself and would require 24 hour care each day of his life.  It’s now safe to say that he proved them wrong!  Rohan’s speech is emotionally enthralling and will inspire even the most cynical person to believe that anything is possible!

Rohan’s target audience is the youth of American, but he believes from the bottom of his heart that his life story and speech can reach adults and inspire them to also live life with a purpose.  He talks about priceless life skills, such as overcoming adversity, dedication, and discipline.
