KATE MARKLAND | THE JOURNAL
The Answers Are in the White Space.
Reflections on imagination, trust and the power of being heard, at eight or at eighty.
Thoughts and Evidence
Parliament's 2025 Conclusion: The Family Courts Are Causing Harm
Parliament said the system is harmful. The system continues. Those two facts placed alongside each other are the accountability gap.
What the Ministry of Justice Found in 2020, and What Happened Next
A government report naming the harm is not accountability. It is the beginning of accountability. Five years on, the evidence of what has happened since.
When Protective Parents Are Labelled the Danger
When a system labels the person raising the concern as the concern, it has stopped protecting children. It is protecting itself.
BOOK KATE TO SPEAK
Build a world together, and trust follows.
Your people are being asked to trust each other across distance, across generations and through constant change. Most have never been shown how.
Kate Markland has. For a time she had one hour a week with her son Gabriel, on a FaceTime call. They spent it building a world. She asked one question, wrote down everything he said and corrected nothing. That world became three books and a method tested in nine UK schools.
In her keynote, Create the World You Want, Kate shows your audience how trust is really built, and gives them a method they can use the same evening.
For leadership, education and family audiences.
