Debra Oakland is the Founder of Living in Courage – A Spiritual Oasis For Overcoming Life’s Biggest Challenges. In 1995 Debra lost her son in a car accident and began her life altering path, becoming a writer, courage advocate and joyful experiencer. The loss of other family members and friends led Debra even deeper into her inner path. She now writes, speaks and works with Universal Laws & Principles that assist others to live courageously from the inside out. Debra has been married to Cody for 27 years. They are partners living a beautiful life together in Laguna Beach, CA.
Debra has been a contributor in several published books, online magazines and events, featured on many radio shows (all listed below) and is eagerly anticipating the release of her own book, which has been a three year project. One of her greatest goals is to guide others to connect to their true inner passion and unique essence of authenticity. “You have a voice, you have a choice. Apply both daily and you will be on the road to personal freedom.” – Debra Oakland
Living in Courage is important to Debra because of the challenges she has lived through and overcome. Courage means something different to each and is a quality held sacred in the heart. Life requires a certain amount of courage on a daily basis. There is not one person who gets through life without challenges to overcome. People are always looking for answers to life’s biggest challenges. By sharing experiences in and around courage, what a difference we can all make in each others lives.
Peace be with you as I leave you with my definition of Courage.
Living in courage is a big, broad subject. I see courage as the will to act from the strength and power within the heart. Courage is a quality you gain through overcoming life’s biggest challenges and something you become through experience. Living a courageous life happens when we allow the true essence of who we are to rise up and shine for all the world to see – regardless of other people’s opinions. Courageous individuals who are true to themselves feel a powerful resolve that’s unshakable, a true conviction of purpose, a willingness to carry on in the face of any challenge.
Standing in the power of purpose is a pure point of courage, available to everyone who cares to utilize it in their life. That brings forward the power that’s alive within. If that power has been diminished greatly, when awakened it can shatter the fear of moving forward toward an intention or goal.
Greatness arises from mediocrity. Lives are altered as awareness shifts to possibility and progress. The union of courage and honor is a great gift within the heart of every human soul.

“I have known Debra Oakland through most of the years when she faced the
fearful situations she describes in her book. Her courage, and the courage of
her husband Cody, have been undeniable and inspiring. And a few years
ago, when I was faced with a life-altering medical challenge, and was afraid,
she offered her support and compassion and prayers to me. And I was less
afraid, and I survived, and I am grateful. Debra does the things she tells us
we can do. She knows whereof she speaks. If courage is contagious, Debra
is a carrier. Her book is a valuable souvenir of times past, and a reassuring
guide through times to come. Please read it; we will all be better for it!”

~ Notes from the Universe - Mike Dooley
10.But today our very survival depends on our ability to stay awake, to adjust to new ideas, to remain vigilant and to face the challenge of change. The large house in which we live demands that we transform this world-wide neighborhood into a world - wide brotherhood. Together we must learn to live as brothers or together we will be forced to perish as fools.
We must work passionately and indefatigably to bridge the gulf between our scientific progress and our moral progress. One of the great problems of mankind is that we suffer from a poverty of the spirit which stands in glaring contrast to our scientific and technological abundance. The richer we have become materially, the poorer we have become morally and spiritually.
~ Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
