Rajinder Rai PharmD

You’ve built the life you were told to want—yet somehow, it doesn’t feel like yours anymore.

The drive, the discipline, the constant doing—once your strength—now feel like resistance.

I know that moment well.

For more than three decades, I built a thriving career as a pharmacist and entrepreneur—helping others, leading a team, checking every box. Until my own body and spirit called a pause. What I learned changed everything about how I live, lead, and work—and it became the foundation for my life’s mission.
Today, as the Founder of Sunrais Health and a Midlife & Leadership Strategist, I work with women who are ready to redefine success through a new lens—one rooted in physiology, identity, and feminine power.

I help women understand that burnout isn’t a mindset problem—it’s a message from the body. That clarity and confidence aren’t found by pushing harder, but by learning to regulate the nervous system, honor hormonal shifts, and reconnect with their authentic identity.

My work blends science and soul: evidence-based frameworks drawn from 30 years in pharmacy, functional health, and behavioral science—integrated with women-centric coaching and lived experience as a South Asian woman, mother, and founder.

Through the Dose of Pause™ Framework, my talks, and executive programs, I guide high-performing women to move from survival → stability → sovereignty—so they can lead, live, and love without losing themselves in the process.

The women who resonate with this work are visionaries, leaders, and founders who have already achieved more than they imagined—yet quietly sense there’s another way. They’re ready to trade burnout for balance, achievement for alignment, and pressure for peace.

Midlife isn’t the end of ambition. It’s the expansion of it.

My mission is simple: to reimagine this season as the most powerful one yet—
for women, their careers, and their wellbeing.

Is our anxiety inherited?

On this episode of Dose Of PAUSe, I sat down with my daughter.

We explore how anxiety is passed down in families and what it really takes to reset our nervous systems. Becoming more present versions of ourselves has transformed how we show up for each other.

Sunrais Health  our mission is to put women’s health back in the hands of women.
 And that starts with building shared knowledge among generations.

Not by burning it all down!

But by giving yourself permission to 
look at everything with fresh eyes.

This week I read a reflection that really stayed with me. 
The idea was this:

"𝘈𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳, 𝘐 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘢 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘳𝘦-𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨. 𝘐 𝘪𝘮𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐’𝘮 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘤𝘩 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘮𝘺 𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦. 𝘕𝘰 𝘫𝘰𝘣. 𝘕𝘰 𝘵𝘪𝘵𝘭𝘦𝘴. 𝘕𝘰 𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴. 𝘕𝘰 𝘳𝘰𝘭𝘦𝘴. 𝘕𝘰 𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘶𝘮𝘱𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴.

And it made me pause.

So many high-achieving women don’t feel stuck because they lack options… They feel stuck because they are still living inside 𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗱𝗲𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 that no longer match who they’ve become.

What would change if you re-decided based 
on the woman you are today?

Your version of success?
Your health priorities? 
Your boundaries? 
Your schedule? 
Your pace?

I’m Rajinder 👋 I help high-achieving women reverse 
stress-driven aging, rebuild their energy, and reconnect 
with the life they worked so hard to build.

👉 I’m inviting 𝟴 𝘄𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝘃𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴

Comment 𝘙𝘌𝘈𝘋𝘠 or DM me.

𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝗶𝗱𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁?

That season where something is clearly changing ,
your body, your energy, 
your priorities… even what you 𝘵𝘰𝘭𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦.

You can be surrounded by people. 
Successful on paper. 
Busy from morning to night.
…and still feel like you’re carrying too much alone.

Because midshift isn’t just about hormones or aging. 

It’s about the invisible weight women hold 
and how exhausting it becomes to keep 
“pushing through” like nothing has changed.

That’s why I’m hosting something different.

On 𝗙𝗲𝗯𝗿𝘂𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝟲, I’m opening my table for an 
intimate supper club with The Authentic Asian 
for just 6 women.

Not networking. Not small talk. Not another night out.

Reconnect  with yourself & with women who 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘪𝘵.

The theme is simple: "𝘽𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙤𝙬𝙣 𝙑𝙖𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙚." 
Because self-love is the new luxury.

In midshift, self-love looks more like 
𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵, 𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺.

If you’ve been feeling stretched thin, 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘂𝘀.
I’d love to have you at the table.

𝗢𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝟯 𝘀𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘀 𝗹𝗲𝗳𝘁.  DM me “𝗦𝗘𝗟𝗙 𝗟𝗢𝗩𝗘” and I’ll send you the details.

𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿. 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱. 


𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿, 𝗺𝘆 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱 𝗶𝘀 𝙐𝙣𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙠𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚.

Not unbreakable. 
Not superhuman. 
Not “push through no matter what.”

𝗨𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗸𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗳. 
𝗨𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗸𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆.
𝗨𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗸𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗜’𝗺 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴.

For me, that looks like:
1️⃣ Trusting my body instead of overriding it 
2️⃣ Making decisions that protect my healthspan 
3️⃣ Letting go of pressure to perform strength 
4️⃣ Choosing boundaries that create emotional safety 
5️⃣ Leading from my feminine power — not constant force 
6️⃣ Staying rooted when life gets loud 
7️⃣ Building a life I feel 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵 in, not just successful in

This isn’t about toughness.
It’s about 𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁, 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 
so I don’t get blown off course every time something shifts around me.

This is the work I’m doing for myself and it’s the work 
I do with the women I coach.

If you want to step into your own 𝘂𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗸𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗲𝗿𝗮 this year 
and  don't want to repeat another year of feeling disconnected…

DM 𝗤𝗨𝗜𝗭 and I’ll send you the first step I use with 
clients to see what your body and nervous system are signaling .

Do you have the capacity to pause? 


On our latest episode of Dose of PAUSE, 
I sat down with my daughter to discuss how anxiety is modeled and passed down.  
But if one woman in the loop decides to disrupt the pattern, the impact ripples to the others.

Healthcare doesn’t have a science problem

Too much patient data is fragmented

We turn scattered patient signals into

We unify: 
✅ EHR + labs 
✅ SDOH 
✅ wearables / remote monitoring data

How often do you find yourself starting then stopping? 


Here’s what I keep hearing from high-achieving women:

“I don’t know what I want next. I just know it’s not this.”

You're still capable.
Your life looks good.  
Your résumé is strong.
And something inside feels… off.

Not broken. Not a crisis.
You’ve outgrown the way you’ve been living.

That moment is what I call a 𝗺𝗶𝗱𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁.

An internal shift where the old operating system 
no longer fits who you’re becoming.

After seeing this pattern again and again, 
I built a simple framework: Dose of PAUSE®
Pause+Power+Play = Longevity+Leadership+Legacy 

Pause — interrupt old patterns 
Power — change how you relate to yourself 
Play — restore life-force and aliveness

This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about upgrading how you operate.

so they can reclaim their energy, time, and sense of self.
