What if just 10 seconds could change everything?
It can.

Do you ever feel like you’re saying yes when you really want to say no? Procrastinating on the things you don’t want to do, or worrying what everyone else thinks of you? Or that there’s too much to do and not enough time?
While making lasting change isn’t instant, the first step is.

Drawing on scientific research of how the mind works, Brain-Based coach Venita Dimos teaches us how happiness, confidence, and success comes from choosing better. 10 Second Coach show you how taking a tiny, intentional pause can transform the thousands of small, automatic decisions you make every day into sliding door moments to re-shape your focus, energy, work, mood, and ultimately, your life.

Editorial Review

Press play to pause
Here's a well-being listen that respects time-poor people with a desire for self-growth. If you ever feel like you're reacting instead of choosing, this is for you. In 10 Second Coach, Venita Dimos distills the most common worries of humanity—self-doubt, overwhelm, boundaries, procrastination, purpose—into bite-size explainers with simple ways to address them. She reminds us that we make thousands of decisions every day, most on autopilot, in microseconds. Dimos offers something refreshingly achievable: a 10-second pause. A small, intentional moment before you react, before you default to old patterns. Ten seconds to back yourself. Ten seconds to make change that lasts, to choose wisely. Your future self will thank you. —Emma R., Audible Editor
