Hi, I’m Kira, the creator of The Forty Space and author of Still in Love: The Relationship Handbook.
After nearly two decades with my husband, Alex, I wrote Still in Love about what actually keeps a long-term relationship working — the habits, mistakes, arguments, compromises and choices behind staying genuinely happy together. It’s practical relationship advice from two people who have actually lived it, rather than relationship experts telling you how it should work.
The Forty Space grew from the same idea: honest, useful advice grounded in real life. It’s for women in their 30s and 40s navigating ambition, relationships, health, beauty and the strange business of getting older without disappearing into it.
I’m London-based, work in the corporate world and am a certified yoga teacher. I’ve also lived with severe IBS for over 14 years, so gut health remains a big part of what I share — alongside yoga, fitness, aesthetic treatments, skincare and the things I’ve learned through trial, error and occasionally questionable decisions.
This is a space for practical advice, personal experience and saying the things we’re often thinking but don’t necessarily say out loud.
