b'This week we are joined by the 2021 US Women\\u2019s Champion and one of the top junior female players in the world, IM Carissa Yip. I talked with Carissa in\\xa0 early September, at an interesting juncture in her life- she had just concluded her first Chess Olympiad, and was setting out for California, soon to begin her freshman year at Stanford University. This gave Carissa an opportunity to reflect on her past and future in chess and beyond. We discussed the following questions: What went right (and wrong) for Carissa and the US Women\\u2019s Olympiad Team? Why does she love the King\\u2019s Indian Defense? How did she get to her current chess level, and what would she need to do to advance even more? How does she plan to balance academics and chess? Plus Carissa told some fun stories involving interactions with GM Levon Aronian, GM Magnus Carlsen, GM Garry Kasparov, and others.
