However, her life takes a turn as she navigates a legal battle with her ex-husband, leading to the unthinkable—the removal of her children. The unspeakable tragedy of Catherine Kassenoff should never happen to any other women.SHOW NOTES:https://custodypeace.medium.com/i-ask-that-you-please-keep-telling-my-story-so-that-the-truth-is-known-far-and-wide-a-final-plea-977df260097dhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/bh2jt-team-shelby?utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet&utm_medium=sms&utm_source=customer@SHELBBOWN (INSTAGRAM)DISCLAIMER:The following podcast episode features a candid conversation with an individual who is sharing her personal experiences within the context of family court proceedings and her interactions with her ex-husband.
