5B INTERVIEW - DEMI RAE SNYMAN - WHEN SPORTING AMBITION BECOMES UNHEALTHY PRESSURE (23 JULY 26)

School sport can be one of the best parts of growing up. It can teach confidence, discipline, teamwork and how to get back up after life absolutely cooks you on a random Tuesday. But for some young athletes, sport stops being something they love and starts becoming the thing their entire identity, future and self-worth seem to depend on. Between parents, coaches, schools, scholarships, selection and the pressure to become “the next big thing”, are we sometimes asking children to carry professional-level expectations before they have even finished growing up? +Joining us in studio is Registered Counsellor and Student Wellness Services Manager at Emeris, Demi Rae Snyman.

5B WHAT DID YOUR FIRST CAR UNLOCK

There is owning a car because you love cars...and then there is owning a car because your life is currently being held hostage by the sentence: “Unfortunately, we don’t go that side.” Because in South Africa, getting somewhere is not always just about distance. It is about whether transport is available.

5B NICK GOES INSIDE A DOUBLE LIFE (22 JULY 26)

Yesterday, on Bet You Can’t Find, we went looking for somebody living a double life or somebody who knew one. We received a lot of responses. But one message stopped us. The woman who sent it did not say she had discovered someone’s secret life. She said she is part of it. For almost ten years, she has been in a relationship with a man whose family and household apparently know nothing about her. This is not, according to her, a casual arrangement built around the occasional secret message. They travel together. They fly together. She joins him when his professional sporting commitments take him away. And when the phone rings from home, she goes quiet. She knows about them. They do not know about her. We are calling her Patricia. That is not her real name, and we will protect any details that could identify her, the man involved or either family. Patricia, thank you for trusting us with this conversation.

5B DRINK SPIKING AWARENESS WITH PEACH OLIVE THE FOUNDER OF DRINKERBELL (21 JULY 26)

Last Wednesday, for Drink Spiking Awareness Day, we opened this conversation through Bet You Can’t Find. And what came back from you was not just a collection of stories. It was a pattern. People who believed something had happened to them, but never reported it. Friends who watched someone become disoriented far too quickly, but did not know what to do. And one very uncomfortable truth: drink spiking does not only happen in packed clubs or at massive festivals. So this morning, we are following that conversation further. Not to frighten anyone. Not to deliver a lecture before your next night out. But to understand what the risk actually looks like, why so much of it goes unreported, and what friends, venues and event organisers can do before something goes wrong.  Joining us is Peach Piche, also known as Peach Olive, the founder of Drinkerbell. Peach, good morning and welcome to 5 Breakfast.
