I think that wanting it to sound as if you are speaking translates, in written format, to addressing the audience casually and familiarly, and I think this writing achieves that. I would encourage you to continue working on it until you are satisfied with it. I thought it was a good work, but I'd be interested to see your "even better" version of it as well.
