What Is "FINALLY ME?"

A young man sits dejected beside a smoldering pit in a barren landscape


At age 60, co-author and illustrator Frank Sala began working with shamanic counselor Valerie Devi Carpenter to explore healing beyond the limits of talk therapy and self-help. What unfolded was
a breathtaking journey through the unseen realms—where spirit allies, lost soul fragments, and long-buried pain rose to the surface to be healed.


Through this process, Frank not only received physical and emotional healing—he reclaimed himself as an artist and a whole, worthy human being.


This book is more than a memoir. It’s a map for healing, a visual transmission, and a deeply relatable story of midlife transformation.


If you’ve ever felt fractured, unseen, or unsure how
to begin again, Finally ME will remind you: it’s never too late to come home to yourself.


This graphic memoir is more than a book—it’s a testament to the power of healing, creativity, and reclaiming the voice we thought we’d lost.

Finally Me! is a graphic memoir about trauma, soul retrieval, and the power of reclaiming yourself—told through vivid illustrations and deeply personal storytelling.

Your Gift for Saying Yes

As a heartfelt thank-you, you’ll receive a free audio journey created by Valerie:
“Discover your Sacred Garden: A Guided Sound Experience for Healing and Homecoming.”


**This exclusive gift will be available only to launch team members.
