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.

Chaos places
A book about a place of mayhem that offers opportunity amidst uncertainty leaves us wondering about this place we live in and how chaos is necessary for creation and life.
No crying shame
A crying toddler with no clue why to crying adults that squirm at the loss of control. These are emotional expressions that, if we could accept and be present to, may teach us more than we know.
A fuchsia lining
A going nowhere week full of niggles and clouds felt fragile and heavy. A disappointment shrouded Saturday was lifted by a fuchsia lined Sunday.
The wonder of weeds
A book launch about weeds gave us a whole new perspective on these wonderful plants. We may want to rip them from our gardens but they act as messengers to take heed of.
Sit content
A new streaming interface is navigated to find two very different and thought provoking shows that lead us to consider the concept of contentment.
A gift of a week
Another birthday after being away and gifts are delivered in time. More gifts fill the week making it a rich and rewarding experience.
The art of travelling economy
A long weekend to celebrate significant birthdays sent us flying when we prefer to drive. Travel by air is stressful but it matters where you place your focus.
Collectors’ items
Chantal is not a collector with a host of little statues. Matthew is a collector with shelves of craft beer bottles. A collection of content offers the potential of a grand library of possibility.
Walking uphill
We had to walk up a steep hill to get to our apartment. It wasn’t fun but doing it made it easier. Although tempting to take the easy way out, growth and development needs some struggle to make stick.
