The Catapult Effect
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!

The Mind/Body Connection and How it Affects Law Enforcement

In this week’s episode of The Pain Changer®, I chat with Chad Bruckner. Chad is a motivational speaker, author and police life coach. Chad is a retired police detective from Pennsylvania and an Army combat veteran. Chad served for 21 years in government service.
I met Chad at a Wellness Conference in June for first responders that was held in Portland, ME. Chad spoke at the conference, and what he had to say was incredibly important, and very inspiring. He’s also one of the first men I’ve heard mention Brene Brown by name! That my friends, is a man worth listening to.
Chad just launched an incredible book that I have already purchased in his presale, called The Holy Trinity of Successful and Healthy Police Organizations. There is a link below to purchase your own copy.
Chad really understands what needs to change within the culture of law enforcement, so more officers can have a healthy mindset, avoid burnout and enjoy a life outside of work.
In this episode, you will learn:
- How the mind/body connection impacts law enforcement
- What happens when officers are not getting the support they need or they work in a toxic culture
- What Chad learned from his 20+ years of service and how he’s using those lessons to help other officers
- What the Holy Trinity for Successful And Healthy Police Organizations is and why each piece is so important
