Courage and Confidence Podcast – Season 3, Episode 2: Featuring Wayne Timbrell of Palmatum Coaching

In this fascinating episode, hosts Lee Iggulden and Michelle Rogers welcome a very special guest, Wayne Timbrell, founder of Palmatum Coaching, for a wide-ranging, deeply personal conversation about neurodiversity, self-discovery, and what it really means to thrive.

Wayne shares his experience as a late-diagnosed autistic individual, reflecting on a successful 25-year corporate career in digital marketing and ecommerce, and how understanding his own neurodivergent traits has transformed both his life and his work. Lee talks about her own diagnoses of ADHD and autism, making for an honest, relatable and moving discussion.

Together, the three explore:

• What it's like to mask and how exhausting it can be to spend years hiding who you really are
• Why so many neurodivergent people go undiagnosed until adulthood, and what's changing
• The difference between courage and confidence and why you need one before you can build the other
• The PERMA-V model: a practical wellbeing framework that Wayne recommends for anyone wanting to understand what's missing from their life
• The power of self-employment for those who feel they never quite fitted the corporate mould
• Why ‘good enough’ is sometimes exactly right and how over-analysis can lead to paralysis

Wayne also talks about his coaching practice, Palmatum Coaching (the Latin name for one of the Japanese maples), and how he supports neurodivergent individuals, plus the managers who work with them, to understand their strengths, build better habits, and feel genuinely happier at work.

Whether you're neurodivergent, neurotypical, or somewhere in between, this episode is packed with warmth, wisdom and plenty of ‘aha’ moments.
