Nacho discusses his journey with bipolar disorder- from being diagnosed with BPD to how he lives with it now. Through his talk, he inspires others with BPD to live their lives to the fullest. Following a 15-year career as a renewable energy investor with more than $2Bn invested across 2GW in the Americas, Nacho decided to reinvent himself as an author, a coach and an entrepreneur. In 2020 Nacho was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and suffered significant disruptions in his life. He started writing about bipolar to raise social awareness and help people who were struggling to find balance and a deeper purpose. He founded Ignite Elevate, a high performance coaching practice that includes the Powerful Bipolars program. As a non-for-profit entrepreneur, he created Brilliant Bipolars to provide financial and career transitioning support for bipolar people who are in between jobs. As a tech entrepreneur, he is developing the Open Upp mobile app: an anonymous social network that is meant to be a safe space for people to open up and get specific help. He believes the way forward to deal with bipolar calls for radical transparency and that this will save lives. Lives that can then make an impact and change the world! This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
