Ignacio Bonasa’s life started in the whirlwind center of Spain, in a family where diligence and grit were not just values—these were a lifestyle. At a young age, he had a strong sensitivity and an innate fascination with human feeling and attachment. Although he could not yet put it into words, this emotional complexity would ultimately be the foundation of his redemptive path. His formative years were marked by strong family values, close acquaintances, and sustained ambition for progress. Studying for a Law degree, he found himself soon enveloped in the world of banking corporate life, rapidly moving to the highest executive ranks. His working life provided stability, status, and a style of living which was the mirror image of traditional success.
But under this illusion, something essential was lacking. The framework and conventions of professional life made him eager for something more profound, a sense of genuine purpose. A turning point emotional collapse dismantled the illusion of achievement and brought him to an interior reckoning. It was here in this exposed place that Ignacio came to the audacious choice to begin again—not to rebuild what was lost, but to reclaim what had been buried. That private breakdown would become a profound epiphany.
Ignacio’s is not a tale of straightforward success but one of constant rebirth. Pain became his most potent instructor, leading him to discover his greatest purpose: assisting others in shifting their own narratives through emotional intelligence, creative arts, and soulful leadership. Out of those ashes emerged a new book, one that would reach thousands around the world.
Founding Soul-Centered Movements
From this internal awakening emerged Liderarte Factoría de Talento, a pioneering space where personal and professional transformation intersect through art and emotional connection. Ignacio envisioned not just another leadership institute, but a sanctuary where authenticity, vulnerability, and creativity were not only welcomed—but essential. At Liderarte, individuals, teams, and organizations explore their inner narratives and discover how to lead from within.
Driven by a need to make emotional restoration accessible, Ignacio developed Resetéate, a radical approach that allows people to reset their emotional states in just one session. By using artistic mediums as emotional triggers, Resetéate enables individuals to reconnect with themselves and realign with their deeper purpose.
Soon after came Womentoring, an ecosystem of mentorship designed by and for women, rooted in the principles of artistic self-discovery and emotional authenticity. It empowers women to embrace their stories, find their voice, and uplift others through genuine connection. His groundbreaking approach continued with ARTEcoaching, which fuses art therapy and traditional coaching into one fluid, healing experience.
The beating heart of Ignacio’s work remains Dale la vuelta a la tortilla—not merely a brand, but a global social movement dedicated to turning pain into power. For Ignacio, this movement embodies everything he stands for: compassion, transformation, and a return to soul. Through it, he has helped countless individuals and organizations see challenges not as obstacles, but as invitations to evolve.
Merging Passion and Purpose Every Day
Managing personal well-being while running multiple emotionally demanding projects is no easy feat. But for Ignacio, balance is not a destination—it is a sacred daily act. He embraces the emotional highs and lows of his path, allowing himself space to feel, pause, and recalibrate. Through rituals like silence, journaling, music, and solitude, he guards his inner peace and protects his essence from the inevitable noise of the external world.
Travel is more than a hobby for Ignacio—it is a ritual of expansion. It challenges his assumptions, stretches his perspective, and fuels his creativity. Each journey offers him new layers of understanding, which he then channels into his programs and leadership methods.
Ignacio doesn’t draw a line between his professional and personal life; instead, he sees them as extensions of the same soul. His projects are not roles he plays—they are expressions of who he truly is. He maintains strong boundaries to preserve emotional energy, knows when to delegate, and surrounds himself with a team that mirrors his values. At the core of his life is a profound respect for authenticity and relationships—both with others and with himself.
Redefining Business Through Soul
Ignacio’s philosophy on business challenges the conventional. He does not chase profit or market dominance. For him, business is a sacred vessel to create emotional and cultural transformation. He believes that true entrepreneurship is born not from a desire to compete, but from a calling to serve.
Rather than building empires, he is focused on building legacies—legacies that heal, inspire, and elevate. “Every initiative I launch begins with the same question: Does this serve the world? Profitability matters, but never at the cost of soul. My hunger is not for numbers—it’s for impact.” His work seeks to awaken consciousness, ignite purpose, and leave lasting emotional footprints in the hearts of those he touches.
Through his example, Ignacio demonstrates that when business aligns with soul, transformation becomes inevitable. His initiatives may vary in form—coaching, mentorship, art, education—but they are united by a singular intention: to make people feel deeply and live meaningfully.
A Passion That Transcends Borders
At the center of Ignacio’s being is one unwavering passion: helping others rediscover themselves. Whether through a painting session, a silent retreat, or a heartfelt dialogue, his work is always about inviting people to peel back the layers and meet themselves anew.
He is profoundly moved by vulnerability—by the moment a leader sheds their mask, or when someone broken begins to believe in their worth again. Ignacio’s programs use painting, music, storytelling, and theater not as entertainment, but as tools for spiritual alchemy. He believes that when people truly feel, they remember who they are.
Each eye that lights up with new awareness is a reminder of his purpose. Each breakthrough moment reflects the reason he continues this work. For Ignacio, passion is not a drive—it is a way of being.
Navigating the Global Pause
The COVID-19 pandemic marked a significant turning point for Ignacio. “While it disrupted external routines, it deepened my internal clarity. Rather than resisting change, I embraced the opportunity to evolve.” he says. Out of the disruption emerged Resetéate, which became more relevant than ever—a swift, soulful method to help individuals deal with the emotional turbulence of the times.
Ignacio and his team adapted by creating immersive online experiences. They reimagined virtual coaching, launched digital mentoring platforms, and maintained the emotional core of their work despite the physical distance. The pandemic didn’t close their doors—it redirected their compass. It taught Ignacio that true impact is not limited by format but is defined by authenticity and connection.
This period served as proof that resilience and adaptability are not just business strategies—they are emotional imperatives. In the face of uncertainty, Ignacio chose to deepen his roots rather than shrink in fear.
Strength in Sensitivity, Lessons in Limits
One of Ignacio’s defining strengths is his emotional sensitivity. “It allows me to connect with people on a soul level, creating spaces of safety, healing, and transformation. My creativity enables me to turn raw emotion into compelling, life-changing experiences. My resilience, forged in the crucible of personal pain, helps me rise not with hardness, but with grace.” he says.
His journey has also revealed his limitations. At times, he has overextended himself, giving without replenishing. He has held himself to impossible standards, forgetting to offer himself the compassion he so freely gives others. But he has learned. He now understands the power of self-forgiveness, the importance of asking for help, and the wisdom in resting before the body demands it.
For Ignacio, leadership is not about being invulnerable—it’s about being real. And in that truth, he invites others to rise.
The Legacy of Reinvention
Though awards and formal recognitions decorate his path, Ignacio believes his greatest achievement is the ability to continuously reinvent himself through adversity. His platforms—Liderarte, Resetéate, Womentoring, ARTEcoaching, Artelicidad, and Dale la vuelta a la tortilla—stand as living proof of his commitment to soulful evolution.
“Each project is a manifestation of my belief that transformation begins within. Each initiative echoes my trust in art, emotion, and human connection as the most potent forces for change. More than titles or accolades, I value the quiet testimonies of those whose lives have shifted through my work.” Says Ignacio. For him, the true measure of success is not applause, but awakening.
And as he continues to walk this path, one thing remains clear: Ignacio Bonasa is not merely building programs—he’s crafting a movement. A movement rooted in love, led by soul, and destined to heal.
