From Bored to Board: Age 4 to Blindfold Chess—A Teen's Journey


Listen Later

What starts as a conversation about chess… turns into something much deeper.

In this episode, Morah Tziri sits down with  16-year-old Daniel from Australia who started playing chess at just four years old — and hasn’t really looked back since. From winning tournaments as a little kid to playing full games blindfolded (yes, really), this conversation explores what it actually means to get good at something.

But more than that…

👉 What happens when a hobby becomes your thing
👉 How winning, losing, and pressure shape the way we think
👉 Why being challenged is actually the best gift
👉 And how every child can find something that builds confidence and identity

Even if you don’t know the first thing about chess (same 😅), this episode is for you.

If you haven’t yet watched the Libby video, please, please go watch it.

It’s one of the most powerful things we’ve ever shared.

Libby went through so much this past year, including two strokes, and still showed up with such strength, simcha, and determination. The video includes subtitles so you can really understand her — and trust me, it’s worth it.

People all over the world are davening for her, and it’s been extremely moving to see.

These aren’t just swing sets. Think:

• Sturdy, high-end builds

• Fully customizable options
• Designed for years of real use (not something they outgrow in five minutes)

Basically… the kind of thing kids actually use all day.
