Sorry, It's Discontinued: Retail Therapy for the Retail Community
Welcome to Sorry, It's Discontinued — a podcast about the human side of retail.
Hosted by Hilary Nichols, a former luxury beauty manager with more than 25 years of experience in retail, beauty, and fragrance, this show explores the journeys, experiences, and stories that shape the people who work in retail.
Through conversations with beauty advisors, fragrance specialists, makeup artists, freelancers, entrepreneurs, and retail professionals, we highlight the paths that led them to their passions and the lessons they've learned along the way.
In solo episodes, Hilary shares honest reflections on the reality of retail — the good, the bad, the funny, the frustrating, and the unforgettable — while celebrating the brands, products, and history that made the industry special.
💄 Have a seat, hit follow, and join me as we explore the heart, humor, and humanity of retail.

We spend more time with our coworkers than almost anyone else in our lives—so why is it often easier to talk about people than talk to them?
This week, Hilary explores workplace drama, gossip, assumptions, and the stories we create about one another. Through honest reflection, she shares why curiosity may be the most powerful tool we have for improving communication and creating healthier workplaces.
Because sometimes the story we're telling ourselves isn't the truth at all.
