Retire a tradition that no longer fits

Name what you appreciated about it and what has changed.

Try this

  1. Describe what you enjoyed about the tradition and the practical reason it no longer fits.
  2. Choose whether to keep a smaller element, pause or stop. Avoid promising a replacement if the actual preference is to have fewer obligations.

A worked example

“I liked our late dinners, but they don’t fit our mornings anymore.”

An invented example to adapt, not a real exchange or a script you have to follow.
