iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

1/ Grief doesn’t arrive quietly. This year I lost my dad and two friends one to cancer, one to a hit-and-run. It changed me in ways I didn’t expect. #GriefAwarenessWeek

2/ People often don’t know what to say, so they say nothing. That silence can hurt more than the loss itself.

3/ You can work, parent, support others and still feel broken inside. Functioning isn’t the same as coping.

4/ Grief affects your whole body: sleep, appetite, focus, energy. It demands attention.

5/ Connection helps. Small check-ins, shared memories, honest conversations.

6/ We don’t “move on”. We move forward with the love and the lessons.

Moving on from what you thought was “forever” is hard but it’s not the end of your story. You’re not starting from scratch; you’re starting from experience. The ending doesn’t erase the meaning — it refines it. You haven’t failed. You’ve evolved. 🌿💛 #Healing #Resilience

This year I lost my dad and two close friends. Grief reshaped everything, even the parts of life that carried on. If you’re grieving too, I’m holding space for you today. #GriefAwarenessWeek #BereavementSupport

Healthcare leaders: Clarity is care. Unclear direction creates confusion, stress and risk. Your team can’t deliver safe, effective care if they’re second-guessing what you mean. Say it simply. Repeat it often. Make it stick. #Leadership #Healthcare

3 things I learnt the hard way about love and loss in my 50s 💙 🧵

Dawn Jarvis @dawnjarvis.bsky.social · 23/10/2025

Missed my stop again. 😅 But somewhere between frustration and fatigue, I realised… Maybe I didn’t miss anything. Maybe I just found a moment to breathe. 💙

A screenshot essay titled 'So Tired I Missed My Stop… Again', discussing the unique exhaustion experienced in midlife. The text reflects on the emotional, mental, and spiritual fatigue that accompanies daily life responsibilities such as work and caregiving. The author shares a personal experience of missing their stop on the Tube, once a source of embarrassment, now seen as a reminder to slow down and value being over doing. The essay concludes with the realization that missing the stop might not be a loss but an opportunity for self-preservation and a moment to breathe.

“Healing isn’t forgetting — it’s accepting.” You don’t erase the past — you learn from it. Healing is the moment you stop wishing it was different and start living with what is. That’s real freedom.

It didn’t start with abuse. It started like a fairytale. 💙 They mirrored you, loved you, then broke you — not because you were too much, but because they were too small. #LoveLossLife #HealingJourney #SelfWorth

You are not an option. You are not a consolation prize. You are not the fallback. You are the prize. 💙 #LoveLossLife #SelfWorth #HealingJourney

If they wanted to, they would. 💔 Sometimes it’s not about you at all. They didn’t see your worth, weren’t ready for your love, or chose comfort over growth. You didn’t lose your person — you made space for peace.

When I finally went no contact with my ex (again) I realised something important. I wasn’t asking too much of him I was asking the wrong man. You can love deeply and still not be loved right. 💙 #HealingJourney #NoContact #LoveLossLife #LifeAfter50

4/ 😟 Stress is a silent killer. Chronic stress raises blood pressure and damages arteries. Rest is as vital as exercise.

3/ 🚶 Small habits save lives: daily movement, less salt, and quitting smoking all reduce heart risk.

Grief isn’t just sadness. It’s all the love that’s left — the love with nowhere to go. 💙 That love doesn’t fade. It changes direction. You carry it into kindness, stories, and care for others. That’s how love lives on. #GriefJourney #LoveLossLife

I survived health problems, relationship stress + zero sleep. But losing my Marc Jacobs “good” glasses? That was the final straw 🥲 Emergency Greggs steak bake. Cry. Sleep. Tomorrow, we go again.

World Suicide Prevention Day reminds me of those I’ve lost—three people whose deaths changed my life. We can’t always fix things, but we can listen. If someone seems off, ask. If they need to talk, hear them. Listening shows they are not alone. #WSPD2025
