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.

Wherever You Go, There You Are: Breaking the Patterns That Follow You Home | Part 2
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Summary: In Part 2, Dr. Stephen Paul Edwards and Katie dive into what toxic relationship patterns actually do to your business, why entrepreneurs are especially vulnerable, and how the work you do on yourself directly determines the success you build.
Stephen explores the connection between personal patterns and professional ones, the power of boundaries, and why everything that is happening to you is actually happening for you. They close with a deeply practical conversation about intimacy, authenticity, and what it really takes to build something sustainable in both business and relationships.
Key Takeaways
→ Everything is a relationship. Your business, your team, your clients. The patterns you carry into personal relationships will show up in your business too, guaranteed.
→ Entrepreneurs are often solopreneurs without realizing it. The belief that no one can do it as well as you is a pattern, not a fact. And it will cost you everything in the end.
→ Nothing is happening to you. It is all happening for you. The moment you shift from victim to student, you start to find the lesson and break the pattern.
→ Boundaries are not optional. If you do not set them, people will take your power and you will give it away without realizing it. Saying no is an act of self-respect.
→ High expectations of yourself become high expectations of everyone around you. Your partner, your team, your VA. They are not entrepreneurs. Adjust accordingly.
→ Put your own oxygen mask on first. You cannot pour from an empty vessel. Investing in yourself is not selfish, it is the foundation everything else is built on.
→ Authenticity and empathy come from lived experience. When you do the work, you stop judging others because you understand that everyone is going through something.
→ Trust builds intimacy. Telling someone something about yourself that no one else knows creates a depth of connection that shows up in every area of your life.
