Sorry, It's Discontinued: Retail Therapy
Sorry, It’s Discontinued: Retail Therapy explores the people, history, nostalgia, and human side of retail.
Rooted in Houston, I revisit the stores, brands, beauty counters, and department store moments that shaped me — while sharing honest conversations about what it’s really like to work behind the counter today.
Through solo episodes and candid chats with the retail community across beauty, fashion, and fragrance, I share behind-the-counter stories, industry insights, career journeys, and the moments that stay with us long after a shift ends.
For anyone who’s ever worked the sales floor, loved a store like home, or missed a favorite product, brand, or era of retail.

Sorry, It's Discontinued: Retail Therapy
How Retail Pros Show Up When They're Exhausted
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Retail and beauty pros are in the final NYE rush — last-minute makeup appointments, rejuvenating facials, and the pressure of showing up when you're exhausted. This episode honors the emotional resilience of makeup artists, beauty advisors, and skincare professionals closing out December retail season while staring down January hour cuts and smaller paychecks. A heartfelt reminder to pace yourself, protect your creativity, and celebrate what you carried and accomplished this year. Because you can’t show up for everyone if you don’t show up for you first.
