Overcoming Mental Health after Reality TV - Elan Bibas

This week on It’s Not That Deep, I sit down with Elan Bibas – ultra-marathon runner, former Love Island contestant, and a relentless advocate for mental health.We explore what drives someone to run 100 kilometers through pain, silence, and solitude – and how those same miles became a pathway to healing. Elan opens up about a moment in his life when everything familiar fell apart: the end of a long-term relationship, the loss of academic structure, and a career path that left him questioning his identity.Through that breakdown, he rebuilt himself by experimenting with life – trying new things, chasing curiosity, and most importantly, reconnecting with his deeper purpose. Today, his mission is clear: help others navigate mental health through radical honesty, resilience, and movement.We talk identity, emotional resets, over-identifying with titles, and the inner work it takes to stay aligned with who you really are – especially when your reality changes faster than you can process it.If you’ve ever felt lost, stuck, or unsure of who you’re becoming, this episode is for you.🎯 Access the tools, offers, and ways to work with me: https://stan.store/deepaksharma📲 Enjoyed the episode?
