What if friendship wasn't just a comfort - but the very framework that holds life together?
At sixty, Wendy Corner has lived in more countries than most people take holidays, carrying her world in just 20kgs/44lbs of luggage. From airport lounges to Zoom calls across time zones, she has discovered one unshakable truth: we don't outgrow friendship - we grow into it.
In I Get By With a LOT of Help From My Friends: Cultivating Connection in a World Without Roots, Wendy shares her story of building deep, lasting friendships while living a nomadic life. Part memoir, part reflection, and part invitation, this book explores what it means to belong - even when your address changes more often than your Wi-Fi password.
Inside, you'll discover:The "Four Trust Questions" that shape every relationship
How to find and nurture meaningful friendships at any age
The difference between transactional ties and true connection
Why letting go of old stories and friendships can open space for new ones
Reflection prompts to deepen your own journey of connection
Through moving personal stories, gentle humour, and practical insights, Wendy shows how friendship can become a superpower - one that carries us through grief, joy, change, and growth.
For readers of Brené Brown, Elizabeth Gilbert, or anyone longing for authentic connection, this book is a reminder that we never walk alone.
