Episode 6
In this episode, we talk to Lexi Walter Wright of High Five Books in Florence, MA. After a long career as an editor and working in the non-profit world, Lexi decided she was tired of her commute to NYC and wanted to be in close contact with her local community. So she opened a bookstore! Five months later, she was forced to close down in-person shopping due to the pandemic. But she's stronger than ever now!
Lexi will talk with us about the following:
- Why her mantra has been "pivot and hustle,"
- What it has been like operating a small indie bookstore in a pandemic, and
- Why it's important to embrace changing your mind.
