A Comedic Turn: Kiki’s Rise to the Stage In a bold expansion of her career, Dr. Wynns ventured into comedy, blending her psychological expertise with humor.

This realization led her to stand-up comedy as “Kiki” in 2022, where she quickly garnered success with her sharp life observations, high energy, and genuine vulnerability. Dr. Wynns now offers humor coaching and workshops designed to help individuals and businesses harness the power of humor. These sessions aim to increase confidence, combat emotional challenges, and enhance workplace culture and relationships.
