193 The Art of Noticing: How Mary Jo Hoffman Turned Daily Nature Finds into a Mindful Photographic Ritual

In today's captivating episode of The Midlife Makeover Show, host
Wendy Valentine is joined by the remarkable Mary Jo Huffman, a
former aeronautical engineer who has reinvented herself as a
visionary photographer and author. With a daily practice that has
spanned over a decade, Mary Jo has transformed the ordinary into
extraordinary, capturing the essence of nature in her stunning
photographs.


 


As we celebrate the release of her new book "Still: The Art of
Noticing," Mary Jo shares the intimate details of her journey
from capturing the vastness of the aerospace to the intricate
details of the natural world at our feet. Her collection of 275
photographs is a testament to the beauty that exists in the
simplicity and stillness of life, accompanied by essays that are
as insightful as they are humorous.


 


In this episode, we delve into the transformative nature of Mary
Jo's daily photography ritual, uncovering the life lessons she
has discovered and the shift in perspective she offers on the
beauty that surrounds us. Her story is a powerful testament to
the idea that it's never too late to embrace a new path, find
your passion, and share it with the world.


 


Mary Jo's tale is not just one of artistic triumph but also a
reminder of the importance of mindfulness and the therapeutic
power of connecting with nature. Whether you're a creative soul
looking for inspiration or someone seeking a moment of
tranquility in a busy world, this episode will leave you with a
newfound appreciation for the 'still' moments in life.
