The Unbreakable Student with Dr Nic Hooper - Part 2

Season 4 Episode 10

Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 4 Episode 10 of People Soup.

P-Soupers – thanks for tuning in –this week it’s what you’ve been waiting for - the second part of my chat with psychologist, author and academic - Dr Nic Hooper

In Part 2 of our chat we delve into the process of writing a book, who knew that choosing the title and strapline was so important? Nic also choses a song or songs to announce the arrival of his book and there are a couple of cracking takeaways - one for students, one for parents.

This chat was recorded on a special day in June - a significant day for the Hoopers and the evolution of this book - you’ll find out more at the end.
