Tyler Stone on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/17/22 About Tyler Stone -   Tyler Stone is a producer/remixer, DJ and vocalist who has built her career as one of the first female house music producers, and has achieved several top ten Billboard Dance hits with her distinctive style rooted in deep house, disco, and downtempo.  After receiving a degree in Jazz from Cornish College of the Arts, Tyler relocated to San Francisco to join the legendary Third Floor Productions where she cut her teeth under the tutelage of the masterful DJ EFX, and began showcasing her talents with some of Dance and Pop music's finest artists.  This lead to a string of releases and remixes under the name “Ms T” on numerous dance labels such as Strictly Rhythm, Eightball, and Henry Street, with name acts including Armand Van Helden, Robin S, Crystal Waters and Kimara Lovelace as well as N'SYNC.  As an integral part of the 90's San Francisco dance music scene, Tyler went on to open her own studio, Ms T Productions, and became the “go to” engineer within the house music community, working alongside such producers as Miguel Migs and Grammy nominated Jay-J and Chris Lum. Without skipping a beat, Tyler continues to push the envelope as a producer, lending her sophisticated programming to remixes and collaborations on reputable labels including Nervous and Aventura.  Her tracks continue to chart, and receive regular features and playlist adds.  Channeling the disco, funk and soul of her youth, and the house music of the early 90's, Tyler's tracks have a magic that draws you into the essence of the song.  “As a vocalist myself, I tend to pay special attention to how the vocals interact both rhythmically and melodically with the rest of the track.”  But make no mistake, at the core of every track is the beat, ready to groove your body at any BPM. Tyler's production savvy can also be heard in her DJ skills spinning deep house, disco and downtempo.  Whether opening for Little Dragon, or playing the private after parties for such bands as Thievery Corporation and Mayor Hawthorne's Tuxedo, Tyler brings an infectious groove to the party.  She has also held residencies at the W Hotel and Ian Schrager's Clift Hotel and has been called upon frequently to play at exclusive events for the SFMOMA and Make-A-Wish Foundation.   Tyler is an active voting member of the Recording Academy (GRAMMY's) and has served as a National Trustee, as well as Governor for the Pacific NW and San Francisco Chapters.  Tyler has proudly participated on many committees involving the awards process, membership, advocacy and community outreach.

When disaster strikes a community in our nation, our first responders spring into action without hesitation. What is often overlooked is that they too are victims of the disaster. It is these everyday first responders who are called to action to bring safety, security and peace to a chaotic situation. What many don't realize is the families of these first responders are also facing challenges and damaged property, which can distract them from achieving their public safety mission. That is where the National FOP Foundation steps in. Volunteers with the FOP Disaster Area Response Team (DART) provide hot meals and remediation work on first responders' homes so they can stay on the job and focus on stabilizing their communities. On this episode of the Blue View, National FOP President Patrick Yoes sits down with Jason Smith, Chairman of the National FOP DART Committee to talk about the FOP’s commitment to support first responders in communities ravaged by natural or man-made disasters.They were joined by Rob Pride, Chairman of the National FOP Board of Trustees, and Shawn Helbig, Kentucky FOP National Trustee, both of whom shared their first-hand experience with the National FOP's DART response to their communities following the 2021 Western Kentucky tornado and the 2022 Colorado wildfires. ⬛️ ⬛️ ⬛️ WATCH THIS EPISODE (Youtube @GLFOP) ➡️ https://youtu.be/nYU2Gc-ye8w ⬛️ ⬛️ ⬛️ Jason Smith serves as the Chairman of the National FOP DART Committee and previously served as the President of the Oklahoma State FOP.

We live in a world where productivity is a huge emphasis on the lives of lots of people. But as productivity guru, Mike Hyatt advocates, the point of productivity isn't to get more done, it's actually to get more done efficiently so you have more margin to do the things that are more life-giving and make you a more whole person. As children, Enneagram Threes pick up the message that they are only loved for what they do and how well they do it. In turn, Threes often tend to be competitive, success-oriented, multi-tasking machines who have difficulty slowing down.  But what happens when Threes learn to trust that if they just stop working and stop moving that everything will still be taken care of?
