A podcast dedicated to the journey of adult chess improvement. Each week a guest will join me to discuss what has worked for them, what hasn't worked as well, and the status of their journey.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Sangeeta. She was the Washington State Champion as a girl, returned to chess as an adult, and has begun directing scholastic tournaments. We talked about the pain of losing and her improvement journey. Sangeeta talked about reaching her goal of 2000. We discussed her time as a kid, kids today, and how she handles them at tournaments.
