A Thousand Words debuts on UK Column with the first instalment of a three-part interview with Katy-Jo Murfin. This is no ordinary interview: conducted by Jake Fern, the accomplished artist, A Thousand Words is a live sitting for a phenomenal portrait of Katy-Jo. In this opening episode, Katy-Jo covers some deeply personal ground, especially surrounding the very many challenges that the birth of her youngest child presented and how, with the support of family and friends, they overcame all in their paths.
Hope Sussex grew from the oppression of the upside down world we were thrown into during 2020 and thrives today, to the joy of children and parents alike. Katy-Jo tells Jake about the inspiration and the journey into home education and, indeed, the associated swirl of negative propaganda.
