Katie Wrigley

Katie Wrigley turns burned-out teams into durable, high-output operators by training the one system most leaders ignore: the nervous system. Through The Catapult Effect, she tackles the real cost of stress on performance, retention, and trust inside the organization. Her work spans police agencies, medical teams, and corporate environments where the stakes are human, financial, and reputational all at once. While most companies throw perks at burnout and call it culture, Katie goes straight to the biology that drives behavior and builds performance from the inside out.

Katie’s edge starts with how she listens and what she notices. She uses sharp diagnostic conversations and live exercises to surface stress patterns, survival responses, and invisible pressure points that most people have never been taught to read. From there she teaches practical nervous system training that teams can use in the field, in the office, and in the middle of real conflict. Leaders who bring her in see faster recovery after high-pressure events, tighter collaboration across departments, and a measurable lift in morale because people stop operating in constant fight or flight and start making clear, grounded decisions.

In high-pressure rooms, Katie delivers calm, clear frameworks that teams can apply the same day. Her style is direct, grounded, and tactical, with zero fluff and no performative “wellness” talk. She gives people tools they will actually use when a call goes bad, a patient load spikes, or a corporate fire drill hits at 4 p.m. on a Friday. Leaders who work with her feel the difference in the tone of their teams, the stability of their culture, and the energy in the room. When the mission is to keep your people sharp, resilient, and ready, Katie is the one you want setting the standard.
