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.

In the bustling world of motivational speaking, where voices rise and inspire, one individual stands out: Derik Fay.  Not just for his powerful messages, but for the remarkable journey that has placed him alongside some of the world’s most influential figures. 

I recently had the opportunity to sit down with Derik Fay to delve into his experiences sharing stages with icons like Tony Robbins, Tim Grover, and a constellation of A list celebrity names.

“It’s been a surreal experience,” Fay began, a hint of awe still present in his voice. “To stand next to icons who have inspired millions, to witness their command of an audience, it’s a masterclass in itself. 

Fay’s journey, as he describes it, is a blend of hard work, delusional confidence, genuine passion, and a relentless pursuit of connection. 

“It’s not just about the name on the marquee,” he emphasized. “It’s about the shared energy, and the exchange of ideas. Whether it’s Kevin Hart’s comedic genius or Alex Rodriguez’s athletic drive, there’s something to learn from everyone I share the stage with.”

What struck me most during our conversation was Fay’s emphasis on authenticity. “I try to bring the same realness to the stage that I do in my online content,” he explained, referencing his popular Instagram reels and YouTube shorts. 

“People connect with genuine emotion, with relatable stories. It’s about building a bridge, not just delivering a lecture.”

Fays direct, conversational style, which I’ve observed in his online content, and in our interview clearly translates to his live performances. “I’ve learned that vulnerability is a strength,” he shared. “Whether I’m talking about the challenges of fatherhood or the importance of emotional intelligence, I want people to walk away feeling seen and understood.”

Beyond the star-studded appearances, Fay sees his speaking engagements as a platform for positive change. “It’s about sharing insights that can make a real difference,” he told me. 

“Whether it’s inspiring entrepreneurs to chase their dreams or helping individuals navigate difficult relationships, I want to leave a lasting impact.”

The lessons learned from sharing stages with these giants has undoubtedly shaped Fay’s approach. “I’ve absorbed so much from watching these masters at work,” he reflected. “It’s not just about the techniques, it’s about the passion, the commitment, the unwavering belief in the power of communication.”

As Derik Fay continues to grace stages around the globe, one thing is clear: his journey is a testament to the power of authentic connection and the enduring influence of shared experiences. And with each event, the legacy of these moments continues to grow, leaving an indelible mark on both the speaker and the audience.
