Hidden in Plain Sight presented by Brad Ruggles

About this episode

Brad Ruggles explores the concept of beauty and wonder in everyday life and how we often overlook it.

Beauty is not in short supply, but our attention often is. We spend so much of life skimming past the familiar that the everyday starts to look, well, ordinary. Same street. Same dishes. Same inbox. Same tree outside the window doing tree things again. Has life lost its wonder or have we just stopped noticing?
