About this listen

Ally sits down with client and friend Marissa Heckman, who opens up about her fight through the broken family court system, child welfare, and the realities of addiction. What began as a custody nightmare turned into a relentless battle for her children and against a system that seemed determined to stand in the way. Marissa and her husband fought for everything they have today. Against all odds, she adopted four children and is working on a fifth. This is the raw truth about dependency court, state failures, and the incredible strength it takes to keep a family together when the system is stacked against you.
