Marbella Life Podcast #46 | Isak Melin: From Elite Bodybuilder to Burnout - Redefining Health

Today, I’m sitting down with Isak Melin. From elite bodybuilding and becoming Sweden’s most hired online coach, to creating a food brand from Instagram parking-lot deliveries - Isak’s journey looks like a huge success from the outside. But behind the medals, the companies, and the discipline, there was also burnout… and a complete redefinition of what health really means.

In this conversation in the beautiful Swedish Spisa shop in Centro Plaza, where he’s currently the marketing manager, we go beyond fitness and food - into mental health, breath work, balance, and what happens when you stop chasing ‘more’ and start choosing what actually matters. This is a conversation about ambition, collapse, and building a life that truly works - from the inside out.

Top 5 Places to Visit in Marbella:

La Concha mountain - to climb is a must

La Cañada - for shopping and groceries, if you love shopping and food like me (grocery shopping Al Campo)

Old Town Marbella has some cozy cidyllic Spanish restaurants and local Tapas.

Aota Sushi Marbella - my favorite restaurant that has an á la carte buffét

Spisa -  a nice place to work, it’s the place to be, also for good networking!
