About Enabling the How
Our call to action at 5th Place is to focus on developing emotional fitness and mental well-being in order to create positive change in the world. Join us, Chantal and Matthew, co-owners of 5th Place, in our escapades every week as we stumble and trip, dance and whirl our way through very normal and not so normal weeks in their drive to make the world a better place. This “How” comes in many different forms and in this case it comes in the form of sharing life, loves, and loss. It’s also a whole lot of what living is like in South Africa.

What freaks you out
The only way to grow and heal and find out what life wishes to offer us, is to Accept and say “yes” to whatever comes our way.
Not business as usual
What we offer is a new paradigm and way of looking at the world. It’s not business as usual. The Week That Was looks at our struggle to gain traction with 5th Place and our work.
That’s not what I meant
The way you feel when I unintentionally offend you, is never about me, it is about your unresolved hurts and the still open wounds that I happened to poke and reopen.
It’s the little things
The Week That Was looks at welcoming our first graduates, getting traction, building bridges, celebrating you and supporting others.
But wait, there’s more….
An invitation to participate in an experience, the next Shape of Emotion workshop. Our growing community and the appointment of an illustrator. Welcome to The Week That Was.
How to feel whole again
It is no coincidence that when we feel deep emotional pain we describe it as if our very flesh has been torn apart, stabbed, broken, and left with gaping holes. When we attend to our emotional holes we can realign with the wholeness that is our natural state.
Feelings offer us a valuable opportunity to heal
The feelings we associate with our experiences contribute to our sense of self and our identity. Regulating them helps us uncover the whole, human being we already are.
Goodbye and hello!
We want to start a conversation with you about what it is we are doing. Share with you the experiments and explorations of working in a space that many have a strong aversion to.
Lessons of acceptance and rejection
This past week we had an opportunity to be reminded of the value of focusing on the generative, good, important stuff. And we also were given a small nudge in the other direction.
