Hi there,
Welcome to Sorry, It's Discontinued!
About
Sorry, It’s Discontinued is a podcast I created to celebrate the human side of retail, the retail associates who keep it going and the stores and brands we all love.I’m Hilary Nichols, a former luxury beauty manager with more than 25 years of retail experience. On the show, I explore retail history, shopping nostalgia, workplace culture, leadership, beauty, fragrance, and everything in between.Some episodes revisit beloved department stores, influential brands, and discontinued favorites that shaped our lives. Others acknowledge the challenges retail associates face while reminding the people behind the name tags that their stories, work, and well-being matter more than they may realize.Whether you have worked in retail, love shopping, or simply miss the stores and products you grew up with, have a seat and join me.Because retail was never just a job, it is part of our history, our memories, and our community.New episode every Thursday.

Working in retail asks you to give your energy, patience and heart every day. While you’re caring for customers remember to care for yourself too. It can make all the difference in how you feel and that is more important than anything.
