Jenny Wynter is what happens when a stand-up comedian and a mental health advocate collide. Based in Queensland, she’s known for taking the stuff workplaces usually tiptoe around - the messy reality of creativity, culture, and mental load - putting it onstage, and turning it into something genuinely unforgettable.

Jenny doesn't deliver keynotes; she runs an intervention. Instead of lecturing on leadership or diversity, she uses her extensive training in improv, comedy, and musical timing to pull the audience into a shared experience. This deliberate method transforms what could be another corporate talk into a session that actually sticks - because people weren't just passively listening, they were playing.

Before she was delivering keynotes, Jenny was navigating the wards of children's hospitals as a Clown Doctor for close to five years - a gig that taught her more about high-stakes improvisation, tough audiences, and managing emotional complexity than all her training with the best of the best, (including Second City and The Groundlings in the States and Loose Moose in Canada) combined. She funnels that rare mix of stagecraft and genuine empathy into her movement, Funny Mummies™, a community built to help mothers protect their mental health through connection and laughter.

Her work has been recognised with significant accolades: the PSA Kerrie Nairn Fellowship, the first-ever ABC iView Pitch Perfect win, Excellence in Cabaret at Melbourne Fringe, Best Variety Show at United Solo Festival in New York, and a Green Room Award nomination for cabaret writing. She’s also a two-time TEDx speaker and holds a Bachelor of Communications majoring in Business Marketing. Online, she leads a Facebook community of around 30,000 women, and performs nationally and internationally, often utilising her knack for improvising songs on the spot, supported by years of vocal and keyboard training.

For event planners, Jenny also brings the practical side: full AV support, a studio with green-screen capability for virtual events, recording facilities, and a tour-ready PA system. She’s comfortable working globally, having delivered virtual keynotes to teams across the Asia Pacific, clients in the US, and organisations in the UK - always ensuring the event happens during the client's business hours, even if it means logging on in the middle of the night from Queensland.

Clients describe her the same way: warm, sharp, and genuinely inclusive. She doesn't just deliver a message; she shifts the energy of the room in minutes, leaving people feeling lighter and ready to act. If you’re looking for a keynote grounded in the messy reality of life, but delivered with the precision of a trained comedian, Jenny is the go-to speaker for an event that is truly energising and grounded in humanity.
