Can someone help me give this speech a title?

As far back as I can remember, I’ve always loved performing in front of an audience. Our story begins with me as a toddler, barely old enough to talk. At the time, I lived in my grandmother’s house. Once a week, she would have people come to her house for a religious service. These services would later be moved to my Uncle Ted’s house, along with the activities that followed. After the service, I would address the audience and tell them to sit back down so I could do some type of performance for them. Low and behold an amateur performer (and an eventual Toastmaster) was born. Once I became too old for such practices, I stopped doing them. Coincidentally, this is also when doing this was no longer considered, “cute”, by the older generations of people in attendance. This was also when I started going to public school. During the time when I was in school, I always felt like something was missing or just plain not right and I never knew what it was. I didn’t learn what was wrong until much later as we’ll soon see. The start of my junior year of high school brought many new changes for me as this was when I started going to Perkins School for the Blind. After doing this, I felt like I was free and able to do whatever I wanted within reason of course. So, I started pursuing many performing projects. I did everything from performing at my cottage’s coffeehouse that we ran every Monday night to joining theater class where I acted in two consecutive school plays. At this time, I began to realize what I had been missing out on for so many years. I wasn’t able to pursue the performing projects I wanted and needed to help me discover who I was. During my second year of college, I opted to take courses that would help me learn about myself. The courses I took were Writing from Personal Experience, Creative Writing, Fundamentals of Acting and Public Speaking. I found Public Speaking to be most helpful in achieving that goal. I did a speech in which I told the audience what led me to choose my psychology major. While I was writing the speech, I had a conversation with my grandmother in which she reminded me of how I used to love performing in front of her friends after the religious services. The point she was trying to make by saying this was that I’m good at performing and I love doing it so I should make a career out of it. I took advantage of every opportunity I could find to perform after that but I didn’t make a career out of it because the idea didn’t seem practical to me. A couple of my performance projects include doing my own radio show at my college radio station and speaking at my mom’s wedding. I have my stepfather to thank for that last one. It might seem quite odd but I give my stepfather all the credit for believing in my ability to perform and believing in me as a whole. I’m a born performer, a natural master of the stage who knows his audience. I am Brandon Ginther
