Episode From Retail to The Beauty Way: Jyoti Lohman Cover

From Retail to The Beauty Way: Jyoti Lohman

This week on Sorry, It’s Discontinued, I recently sat down with Jyoti Lohman, founder of The Beauty Way — a luxury body care brand rooted in intention, self-care, mindfulness, and reconnecting with yourself. From her early inspiration growing up with a mother who taught her the importance of nurturing yourself, to studying at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising in San Francisco and later in Paris, Jyoti shares the journey that led her from a successful career in luxury fashion and retail to creating a brand of her own. We talk about creativity, balance, motherhood, reinvention, and how The Beauty Way uses affirmations, mantras, and intentional rituals to turn everyday body care into meaningful moments of self-connection. You can learn more about Jyoti and shop The Beauty Way at: thebeautywayco.com And follow along on Instagram at @thebeautyway_co ✨ And retail warriors… what is a passion you’ve dreamed of creating for yourself?
