Swedish grandmaster reflects on her life in chess, how she learnt to play and came to be a professional. She also considers the whole question of women in chess.
She talked about Anna growing up with her bringing bringing Anna around with her to chess games and how it must've been hard for her. Now at least, it seems like Anna wouldn't have had it any other way, seeing as how successful she at this point. Hell, I only know about Pia because of Anna, but extremely grateful that I have now.
Anna doesn't seem to have suffered from her mum playing chess. Pia you have brought up a beautiful young woman. I think you have won at chess and as a mum.
It is easy to learn from Pia as she is very supportive of Women's Chess, and as player very competitive. The love and support she gives to her daughter is much more important than many realize. It is a sign to the world that a great way to support women's chess is to have daughters who listen to your wise counsel as a mother!! Further, it promotes a more intimate family. Anna simply adores Pia. Bless you Pia Cramling! She is anxious to become her Mama! How many young women in this world can do that!? The world needs you both dearly.
Pia is the legend no one ever mentions.
There is no Holland, it is the Kingdom of the Netherlands and chess will never be Olympic because they do NOT want 2 change the doping rules.

Pia is wonderful! I admire her demeanor. She seems very kind, but she is a warrior on the chessboard. Great!!
Pia needs her own UA-cam channel.

It's amazing to listen to her. So much passion. She is in GOD LEVEL.
Such a strong chess player. I could listen to her talk all day. The accent and tone is sooo smooth.
I love how Pia plays and her humility too. How amazing to be a chess family. So inspiring to me, and she must be incredibly proud of her daughter.
A very important message she shared about Women's chess. There should be a stronger effort to get more young women involved in chess.
