​As a Creator, please share how your efforts help women to thrive.
As a Creator, Master Hairstylist and Coach, I work with women all day! I see a great deal of women struggling with overall self-confidence/self-love. From, embracing their beauty within, to transitioning through life there is a struggle. What will other people think, what if it does not work etc. I coach them to forget about what others think, it is about what you think. How will you feel if you base your life off the thoughts of others resulting in you not living your best life? Do not think about what if it does not work, instead think about when it does work how will you feel. It is therapy and re-shifting the mindset. Once you develop the right mindset you can set out to conquer anything your heart desires! When women learn the ability to embrace their fears, that is when they truly thrive!

Describe what makes you a visionary:
My name is Naomi Hall. I’m the founder and owner of The Release Party. 
Characteristics that make me a visionary : I never give up , even when things get difficult. I’m not afraid of failure. I’m not easily intimidated. I can envision on what I want the future to look like and then strategize how to get there. I may not be detail oriented and my plan may not have all of the technicalities but I know that planning is the starting point. I’m open minded and not afraid to ask “what if”. 

Share 3 steps that helped you bring your vision to life:
1. Write it out : Habakkuk 2:2 “Write the vision; make it plain“  — I do my best thinking when I’m writing. It seems to flow out a lot easier without interruptions. My best brainstorming is done when you using pen and paper. 

I asked myself 5 questions and wrote the answer out completely:
- What are my areas of focus?
-Who is my demographic?
-What kind of image am I trying to portray?
-What is it exactly that I’m setting out to do? 
-Who is my local competition? 


2. Resolve old wounds: 
I had to figure out who I really was. I had to determine what it was that I really wanted. I realized I needed to heal my heart.  Business is not about making money. Business is about serving other people. Where you serve with an open heart, you draw success to you. It makes sense that big business starts with healing your heart and serving through love. 

3. Prayer : 
Letting God know the desires of my heart  encourages me that he wants the best for me. Communicating through prayer is imperative for my life both personal and business.  Prayer gives you the space to focus on what is really important and at the same time mentally and emotionally prepares for whatever is to come my way. 


How have you pivoted this year to still reach your goals:  
This year .. everything happened so unexpectedly. I was taken by a complete shock at first but I was able to flip my thinking. 

My goal was to expand  and I’ve accomplished the beginning of it by utilizing  social media, emails and virtual networking. 

I’ve had the opportunity to obtained more knowledge which allowed me to have better focus on The Release party and  revamp my business.

Tell us about your latest Mompreneur Moves!
My latest move has been expanding my brand into helping women pivot their in-person events into virtual events. It has been a lot of work but so much fun. ​

As a Creator, please share how your efforts help women to thrive.
I teach millennial moms and start-up entrepreneurs how to master their mindset and balance their lives through the 3 Pillars of Self (self-care, self-worth, & self-discipline). Each of these pillars affects us subconsciously at a personal and professional level. It’s important to recognize how our thoughts show up in those areas. Our thoughts are very powerful. They’re the first key in dictating the reality we live in because our behaviors are influenced by our thoughts. ​

I am passionate about my work as a peak potential strategist and speaker because when I teach women how to master their most powerful tool (their mind), they thrive all over the place and I love it! The reason I focus on women is because when women grow and develop, they impact the lives of everyone they are connected to. However, many women struggle with the feeling of “I’m not good enough”. I’ve had to overcome that in my own life – from an absent father to an abusive relationship to being called “miracle woman” after a 2007 car wreck left me brain dead and paralyzed. My biggest obstacle was overcoming my mind and knowing that I am more than good enough. Now, I combine my education and experiences to teach women how to overcome any obstacle they are faced with so that they can thrive, too!  
 
What top 3 steps helped you reach success in your passion?  
The first step is to make self-care a priority. Self-care is more than spa days. It’s practicing boundaries. It’s saying, “no”. It’s learning how to effectively manage our emotions and heal our limiting beliefs. It’s putting our self first so that we can continue to pour into others. 
 
The second step is to be intentional. When we aren’t intentional about our goals, our day, our lives…we end up in the same place 20 years from now. When we don’t set intentions, it’s easier to become distracted by things, people, or situations that don’t progress us forward. We end up staying stagnant. Being intentional also helps to keep us focused when obstacles arise.
 
The third step is to take consistent action. The best mindset and advice in the world means nothing if we don’t put action behind it. It’s the seemingly insignificant things we do every day that add up to the big moments and to achieved goals. 
 
How have you pivoted this year to still achieve your goals amidst the unprecedented changes we're all experiencing? 
I already run part of my business virtually. So, the biggest change that I had to adjust to was having my two children home all day, every day. Although routines can be helpful, I had to through all routines out of the window because that no longer worked. I had to allow myself grace to make mistakes as I navigated new waters and home-schooling a public school curriculum. It was frustrating, at first, but once I did that, the days got much easier. If home school didn’t start until 9pm, so be it. At least it got done. When forced to pivot, accept that it doesn’t have to be perfect, and instead of trying to walk the path that others create, do what works for you.
