An SID Update

Author: Hilary January 7, 2026 Duration: 5:54

In this quick SID update, Hilary thanks listeners for supporting her Monday Mini episodes and shares a new, sustainable release plan: one episode every Thursday, plus bonus episodes occasionally when inspiration hits.

A reflection on retail burnout, creative ambition, and honoring the time listeners give when they press play.

Includes a beauty spotlight featuring the Haus Labs Coral Highlighter, a personal favorite Hilary purchased herself — loved for its soft, radiant, skin-like coral glow.

Thank you for listening, celebrating retail stories, and supporting the people behind the counter. New episodes Thursdays.

Ever find yourself missing a favorite store from your childhood or wondering what really happens behind the counter at your local boutique? Sorry, It's Discontinued: Retail Therapy digs into those feelings, weaving together personal stories and broader history to look at how we shop and who makes it happen. This isn't just about commerce; it's about the culture, the community, and the very human experiences found in aisles and on sales floors. You'll hear from people who have built their lives in retail, sharing candid conversations that range from hilarious customer encounters to the tough realities of working the floor today, with perspectives rooted in Houston and reaching far beyond. We sift through nostalgia not just to reminisce, but to understand what shaped our current landscape and to thoughtfully imagine a better future for the industry and the people within it. Each episode, whether a solo reflection or a chat with a member of our retail family, is built on the belief that these spaces are alive with passion and narrative. Tune in for a podcast that frames retail as a deeply human art form, exploring its connections to beauty, fashion, and self-improvement through the voices of those who know it best.
