014 Today you get a 2-topic episode: 1) Adult chess improvement tips from WGM Jennifer Shahade; and 2) A discussion on her new book, Chess Queens, about the celebration & deeper understanding of women in chess.

There’s hardly anyone who has done more to make this game more inclusive for women and girls than Jennifer...

She’s a true inspiration in our community.

Not only is she a 2-time US Women’s Champion and Woman Grandmaster…

Jennifer has also tirelessly spent the past two decades improving chess culture for females everywhere…

In today’s episode we discuss:

The little-used secret to better performance in your games without having to spend more time improving your chess.
Redefining what it means to be “great at chess” (it’s not just ELO!)
The impact she wants her book to have on the chess world.
