Do you know Kim Kerley?
In this episode, we get to know Kim Kerley. She is very special and she knows it!! Kim spent most of her teens homeless, but through sheer determination, she got herself through school and university and is now a teacher and school counsellor, as well as a stand up comedian. A keen observer of life's crazy conditions, her comedy comes from seeking the funny in real life. Kim has been performing stand-up comedy for over 20 years. She is based in San Antonio and has traveled extensively in the U.S. and abroad. Kim also, acted with the comedy group, Laff Stock and Dramatic Diva Productions in the San Antonio area and has appeared in feature films with Mutt Productions. She has appeared on The View and The Mike Huckabee Show. Her Dry Bar Comedy special, Do you Know Her and has over 20 million views and it’s also available as an album on Spotify.
Kim’s skills go beyond comedy as she helmed San Antonio’s number 2 drive time morning radio show. The day after being told she was one of the fastest rising women on the radio, she was fired. The fall from radio fame and a paycheck had her seeking miracles for money for small things like food, mortgage payments and those teenage girls she was raising as a single mom. It was during this time so many miracles did come her way, and she began to document and eventually write about her journey, which has now branched out to public speaking and writing.
Kim stays busy sharing her life and journey. She dares you to define the funny in life. “My wish is we can all find our sparkle.”
