ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
The Catapult Effect is a podcast for entrepreneurs who look successful on the outside, but are carrying more than is sustainable on the inside.
Season 4 centers on one core theme: creating more ease in the life of the entrepreneur. Season 4 is scheduled to begin in March 2026.
Each week, host Katie Wrigley shares grounded, practical conversations with guests who help reduce pressure — not add to it. Guests include practitioners, strategists, and experts working in areas such as nervous-system support, ethical AI, automation, SEO, addiction and craving support, and other approaches that make business and life more sustainable.
Episodes are released weekly and often structured in two parts (15–20 minutes each), allowing for focused conversations that respect attention and nervous-system capacity.This show is designed for entrepreneurs who have already “done the work,” yet still feel stretched, overwhelmed, or quietly struggling — whether in their business, their body, or their day-to-day life.
Season 2 is dedicated to first responders.
Season 3 focuses on professionals.
Don't miss out on Season 1 when it was known as The Pain Changer®. Discover valuable wisdom on pain management and various techniques to reduce pain.
Tune in and start your journey to transformation and resilience!
