Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with co-author, literacy innovator, children’s author, and global Education advocate Kate Markland.
A former physiotherapist turned storytelling pioneer, Kate is the creator of StoryQuest™ — a groundbreaking methodology that achieved 100% engagement across 465 children in nine schools. She is also the co-author of The Adventures of Gabriel, an Amazon number one bestselling children’s book series born from one of the most painful and transformative chapters of her life.
For twenty years, Kate worked as a physiotherapist, learning to listen in a way most people never do — not simply to symptoms, but to the deeper story beneath them. Over time, she realized that healing often begins not with the body, but with being truly heard. That profound insight became the foundation for everything she would later build in literacy, storytelling, education, emotional well-being, and child empowerment.
From her base in the UK, we discuss her remarkable journey, StoryQuest™, children’s literacy, emotional healing, creativity, leadership, education Innovation, storytelling, advocacy, and the importance of helping every child find and share their voice.
This is an inspiring and deeply meaningful conversation about the power of stories to transform lives. Enjoy this interview with Kate Markland.
