"if you don't take your IP seriously...
other people will not take you seriously"

Dr. Kary Oberbrunner isn’t your everyday entrepreneur. He’s a philosopher-practitioner ...a man who transformed personal setbacks into global impact.

Former pastor. Recovered stutterer.
Once hidden by fear, now a voice for clarity.

As the founder of Igniting Souls and Instant IP, a bestselling author of more than a dozen books, and the inaugural Berry Chair of Entrepreneurship at Cedarville University, Kary combines faith, creativity, and cutting-edge business acumen.

He works shoulder-to-shoulder with authors, entrepreneurs, and creators, helping them publish, protect, and promote their intellectual property, turning ideas into 18 streams of income and world-changing influence.

CLARITY ATTRACTS.
CONFUSTION REPELS.

Clarity isn’t optional. It is essential.
In a world of noise and noise-makers, clarity is rare.

“Clarity Attracts. Confusion Repels.”

This isn’t just a tagline. It’s the bedrock of every decision Kary makes, from publishing to speaking, from IP protection to teaching.

Clarity becomes magnetism. Confusion becomes friction.

If you’re ready to build ideas that don’t just exist — but resonate, influence, and last — this is your starting point
