Frau Pow

Frau Pow was started by two roller derby teammates wanting to tackle uncomfortable conversations. They feature discussions on topics that you typically do not want to bring up at the dinner table, with the goal to normalize issues like depression and chronic illness. The hosts share the empowerment and support that they have found in the roller derby community. No prior experience in the sport required!
