She also talked about what a typical day looks like for her and how fortunate she was to connect with other women in the newsroom, including Sylvia Kuzyk.

    This week's episode of The Power to Achieve is with CBC Producer Allie Jaynes! Allie was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 36 (under a year ago) and she says her diagnosis suddenly made her entire life make sense. She also learned of the myths and stigmas surrounding ADHD and why so many people, like Allie, go undiagnosed for most of their life.

    It was a pleasure to get to talk to Allie about her journey and "Very Allie" the audio documentary on the Doc Project!
