Welcome to Freedom Adventure Courage!

For those who want to have more independent and meaningful travel, get paid for the work they love and do it from anywhere, and have the courage to get out there and do it.

Hi, I’m Deborah—a global expat and solo traveler or 14 years (and counting) and an EFT International certified Emotional Freedom Techniques (tapping) practitioner.

This publication is for creatives who feel blocked, stuck, burned out, or disconnected from their spark. If you’ve been struggling to stay consistent with your writing or creative work, doubting your talent, or feeling overwhelmed by perfectionism, you’re in the right place.

Through a mix of tapping, intuitive guidance, mindset support, and fun, sometimes unconventional, creativity stimulators, I help creatives like you:

✨ Release emotional and energetic blocks
🖊 Reconnect with your creative identity
🧭 Hear your intuition more clearly
🎨 Move through resistance with compassion
🦁 Build confidence in your creative voice
⚡ Start, finish, and share your work
🔥 Rediscover joy in the creative process

You’re not alone if you’ve been feeling weighed down by things like:

😫Creative blocks and blank-page panic
😣Procrastination, perfectionism, and self-doubt
🫥Imposter Syndrome
😶‍🌫️Fear of being seen, judged, or misunderstood
😵‍💫Overthinking and endless second-guessing
😑Emotional burnout from putting too much pressure on yourself
😓Feeling lost, invisible, or disconnected from your voice

The Unblocked Creative is here to help you feel grounded, guided, and reconnected to that spark that lights you up. 💡

A Bit About Me

I’m a multi-passionate creative (ENFP, Enneagram 7, total intuitive explorer) who’s been living abroad solo since 2011—following my curiosity and building a life aligned with freedom and purpose.

But I’ve also been where you are: stuck in perfectionism, drained by doubt, grieving lost creative dreams, and constantly getting in my own way.

EFT has helped me reclaim my voice and confidence,
and it’s become one of my favorite tools for creative restoration.

Although I became a certified practitioner in 2024, I’ve been tapping for nearly 20 years. I’ve also been a certified coach since 2007, with a background in writing, travel, folklore, and personal transformation.

This Substack is a mix of everything I’ve learned and am still learning—as I unblock my own creative life and support others in doing the same.

Come as you are. There’s space here for your realness, your voice, your fears, your fire, and your wild, wonderful creative spirit.

💛
Deborah
