sudo npm install -g create-react-app
you're running it as a user without root permissions
Restarting my computer fixed it for me

Your NPM installation is in a privileged space forcing you to use sudo to make any changes. The problem, is that you're PATH isn't being passed to the sudo'd shell.
You can modify the sudoers PATH by editing the secure_path field in /etc/sudoers.
If you just want to get it installed, provide the full path to npm.
sudo $(which npm) install -g coffee-script

I am not very good with the UNIX stuff and things, I just wish these things would be more easy.
From the looks of it, since it says EACCES, it is probably getting an access denied from the system. If you are installing globally on unix you must use sudo.
$ sudo npm install -g webpack
Start using nvm and it will save you from using sudo at all.

I have tried npm cache clean also but still not working.
What does linuxbrew doctor return?
Try to bash reset.sh --hardcore to completely reset Appium server and all npm modules
