Community who refuses to choose between ambition and wellbeing.
My morning HRV was tanking and sleep score was 65%. CGM was elevated from my evening meal. Simple fix - more protein and fiber, plus 10 minute walk after dinner. Game changer.

I was checking X and Instagram right before investor calls. The emotional turmoil from doom-scrolling was spiking my stress. Now I do 5 minutes of breathing and visualization instead.

Felt guilty skipping workouts during PMS, so I'd force it anyway. Just added stress to my packed calendar. Cycle data showed I needed recovery, not intensity. Switched to gentle movement during luteal phase. Women's bodies are different - work with the rhythm, not against it.

Finally startup leaders who actually get it. Taking care of yourself isn't being soft - it's being smart. We share real stuff: meal timing, better sleep, supplement stack. People who want to win for years, not just months. They're becoming my new friends.

Avi's the most disciplined person I know. If he could burn out, anyone could. But watching him rebuild with data and ancient wisdom showed me the way back. His story gave me permission to fix myself.

My CGM showed glucose hitting 180 after lunch - right before my biggest calls. Ayurvedic wisdom: eat when your digestive fire peaks at midday, not when convenient. Moved lunch from 2:30pm to 1pm. Glucose stays at 110. No more crashes during calls that matter.

Built by a founder who nearly killed himself scaling CreditVidya to a CRED exit
The Deliberate Pause was born from two lives on opposite ends of the performance spectrum - one guided by timeless eastern wisdom, the other driven by modern ambition.
Abhishek put CreditVidya before everything—clients, investors, his own health. The stress induced by relentless demand on his time nearly killed both him and his company. Only when he was forced to pause did he discover the truth: taking care of himself was taking care of his business. His health improved. His judgment sharpened. The company turned around. CRED acquired it. Now, through The Deliberate Pause, he helps leaders break the same cycle.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is The Deliberate Pause, in simple terms?
The Deliberate Pause is your personal performance system. We track 60+ biomarkers from your wearables and apps to show how stressed or energized your body is—and what’s driving it. Then we send personalized, science-backed protocols to help you recover faster, focus deeper, and perform at your best.
What data does The Deliberate Pause use?
We sync data across apps and wearables—including WHOOP, Apple Health, Google Fit, and more—to pull in real-time insights on your body and lifestyle. We track over 60+ biomarkers including:
-
Stress & HRV
-
Sleep patterns & recovery
-
Movement & activity
-
Nutrition & glucose
-
Productivity, screen time, and mood
-
The more data you share, the smarter and more personalized your protocols become
If I already get data from WHOOP, Apple Watch, CGMs, and other devices, why do I need The Deliberate Pause?
Your devices collect the data. We tell you what it means.
Think of your devices as the sensors. The Deliberate Pause is the interpreter and the coach.
We connect the dots. We take data across your apps and wearables and layer it with context from your lifestyle—meeting schedule, sleep patterns, nutrition, screen time, and more. Then we translate that into daily, personalized protocols.
Every morning on WhatsApp: your personalized protocol. Based on your actual data. Designed for peak cognitive performance when it matters most.
What makes The Deliberate Pause different from other wellness or biohacking programs?
We bridge two worlds that have never been connected: cutting-edge neuroscience research (think Andrew Huberman's protocols) with ancient wisdom traditions that have optimized human performance for thousands of years.
Example: Your HRV shows high stress recovery need. Rather than just telling you to "manage stress better," we might recommend a specific pranayama breathing technique, followed by an Ayurvedic meal timing that supports your circadian rhythm
Is there a waitlist?
Yes. We're currently in beta and working closely with a select group of leaders to ensure deep, high-quality outcomes. We prioritize individuals with a clear intent and need for performance optimization. If you'd like to be considered for upcoming cohorts, please join the waitlist or email us and we'll reach out when a spot opens up.
What about data privacy?
Your health data is encrypted and secure. We never share personal information with third parties or use it for anything beyond your optimization program. You own your data completely.
What's the investment?
We're currently in beta with select entrepreneurs, refining what works best. Pricing is customized based on your needs - we'll discuss this when you're selected from the waitlist
