    You’re Not Alone: Dionne Sinclair on How to Stand Out (and Not Burn Out)
    Apr 2 2026

    In this episode of Underground Conversations, we sit down with Dionne Sinclair, Vice President of Clinical Operations and Chief Nursing Executive at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH)

    Dionne moved to Canada as a nine-year-old immigrant kid from Jamaica who was told “she wasn’t college material” because of her strong accent. Years later, she’s at the forefront of Canada’s largest mental health teaching hospital while finishing her PhD at Western University.

    Listen along to hear from her as she breaks down how you can stand out as a young professional while navigating challenges and protecting your mental peace.
