The Life Stage You Finally Have A Name For

Subscribe to Mamamia

A few weeks ago, Mia inhaled a newsletter titled ‘Is Going Camel Mode Inevitable For Parents.’

Camel mode is a time in your life when you power down to focus on one task, it might be for an aging parent, dealing with a separation or a chronic illness, or in the case of both of our guests today, parenting little kids.  

On the show today, Mia explores the concept of camel mode with writer Katheryn Jezer-Morton, and the day-to-day routine of it with a friend of the podcast, Amelia Lester. 

And the idea of it will truly change your life.

THE END BITS:

With thanks to Katheryn Jezer-Morton - read her article on Camel Mode here.
