Dr. Jay Feldman Stresses on the Importance of Entrepreneurs Giving Back to Society

Entrepreneurs thrive on opportunities, but for opportunities to flourish, you need the right conditions. A healthy and positive society provides those conditions, and that’s why truly successful people believe in putting back into a system that makes personal success possible.

Take Dr. Jay Feldman, for example. Helping people and working for the greater good is in the 28-year-old South Florida native’s blood. From an early age, he wanted to be an asset to a society he felt had provided so much for himself and his family. He decided that becoming a doctor and help other people live long, and healthy lives was his true calling.

After leaving the University of Florida with a BS in Biological Science in 2014, Dr. Feldman studied for a Medical Degree at New York’s Touro College of Osteopathic Medicine. Four years of medical school had been a long, hard haul, but in Dr. Feldman’s own words, “I chose medicine because I wanted to do something selfless with my career. I wanted to make the world a better place.”

However, fate often has an entirely separate plan for us compared to the one we originally envisaged. It was no different with Dr. Feldman.

Throughout medical school, Dr. Feldman was also concentrating on his other passion – business. His marketing agency, Instelite, was founded during this period, and it has since turned into something of an Instagram empire, built around the charismatic doctor’s upbeat and philanthropic posts.

Shortly after graduating medical school and starting his formal training as a new doctor, he was left with a decision to make. Dr. Feldman recalls that question pretty much answered itself. He explained, “I quickly realized that the most effective way for me to help the most people was through my business expertise.”

The die was cast, and his fate sealed. By the time 2020 rolled round, Dr. Feldman had already earned himself a reputation as an entrepreneur to watch out for. His determination to give back and make a better, fairer society for all is evident in the projects which have garnered him recognition.

REX Fitness, for instance, is on a mission to create an affordable yet portable home gym that is accessible to all members of society. Dr. Feldman believes fitness is the key to good health and that nobody should be excluded from its pursuit due to the lack of disposable income.

Likewise, his recently founded non-profit, Food Equality Corporation, plans to help increase access to quality food items for underserved communities.

Dr. Feldman explains, “Food inequality is one of the root causes of health inequality. It creates chronic diseases at an early age in people from disadvantaged communities, and my ambition is to change that.”

No man is an island, and we all need to be a part of a community to thrive. Dr. Feldman believes that for an entrepreneur to succeed truly, society must flourish alongside them. And only a fool would argue against that.

Sustainability is an ongoing theme in a world that finally answers the environment’s call to action. From toning down single-use plastics to making subtle yet powerful lifestyle changes, modern society means business when it comes to the green revolution.

The skincare industry, in particular, is pitching in by resorting to clean beauty. From Greece to the Netherlands, Amalia Pavlidou stumbled upon a revelation. As she browsed rows of natural products, the idea for Alternative Therapies began to take shape—a skincare line rooted in nature, yet forward-thinking in science.

The Evolution of a Conscious Skincare Movement

As consumers demand more transparency in their beauty routines, the natural and vegan skincare market is booming. Alternative Therapies finds itself at the heart of this eco-conscious shift.

“When we started, it was not just about creating products—it was about driving a movement that would help put the world on track toward healing,” says Amalia Pavlidou. “I wanted to prove that luxury and sustainability can coexist without canceling each other out.”

This philosophy shines through in every detail, from the company’s recyclable glass packaging to its commitment to avoiding harmful chemicals like parabens and sulfates. One of the flagship products, the vitamin C serum, is a true reflection of this concept, blending 2% natural Vitamin C, ferulic acid, and sea-buckthorn to deliver both radiant skin and a clean conscience.

Alternative Therapies, once a small player, has utilized this trend, entering the competitive U.S. market this year. “There is a deep-rooted connection between nature and self-care in Greek culture,” explains Pavlidou. “We are bringing that tradition to the global stage, blending it with progressive science.”

The Rise of Eco-Beauty 

Amalia Pavlidou’s plan for progress in the industry—one where luxury does not compromise ethics—has attracted a growing community of supporters. As Alternative Therapies expands its presence in the U.S., it remains grounded in its mission to redefine beauty standards.

“When I started this, I was hoping to do more than simply build a business—I wanted to build a legacy,” reflects Pavlidou. “Apart from looking good, beauty should be about feeling good and doing good.”

Now the question is not whether the beauty industry will embrace sustainability—it is how quickly it can catch up with pioneers like Alternative Therapies taking the reins. With its commitment to changing the world with mild ingredients, the brand is crafting a greener glow, lighting the way for a more conscious industry. To that effect, it is evident that luxury and beauty can be synonymous.
