I thought being by the Westfield Mall was too far and that it would require multiple subway changes...

Obviously I'm wrong then so I'll look into it.

But I thought it was just he regular subway that runs in London? Well and the overground too?
Careful - there are two large Westfield malls - one at Shepherd's Bush and one at Stratford. Stratford's main station would need you to change to get to King's Cross, but there is also Stratford International station, at the other end of the mall (International is a misnomer - all the services are domestic, even though the facilities technically exist):

Train tickets are more expensive than the Underground, but you do get directly to St Pancras or Ebbsfleet in a few minutes.
