In this short self‑help monologue, the speaker explains that divorce can strip away familiar emotional markers that once anchored a person’s identity. To move forward, she advises deliberately creating new traditions that serve as fresh emotional anchors, helping to shape a renewed sense of self and to mark the beginning of a new life chapter. She emphasizes that these new traditions can be anything the individual chooses, highlighting flexibility and personal agency in rebuilding post‑divorce life.

Chapters

And when we lose those markers because of a divorce, we need to recreate those in a way that is going to help us to move forward. New traditions are a way to anchor in a new life. They were our anchor in our previous life, emotional anchors, and they helped to contribute to that sense of identity. But with the new landscape in front of us, they help us to actually begin a new chapter of our life. And the good news is we can make those traditions anything that we want them to be.
