Karen Ranney pulls no punches when she tells the story of how she survived her addictions and went on to thrive as a New York Times and USA Today best-selling author. Ruthlessly honest, Ranney reveals a simple but effective technique in The Immersion Principle, a technique that can help others achieve their dreams.

Ranney lifts the curtain on her life and, with insight and humor, recounts the story of being an alcoholic, a binge eater, and a 2 1/2 pack a day smoker, all while surviving the loss of her son and husband.

The author of 60 books in various genres, Karen Ranney was first published in 1995.
