About Me

Dr. Tianne Foster is a physician, author, and researcher whose work focuses on burnout, well-being, and healthier ways of living and working in demanding environments.
Trained across Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States, Dr. Foster brings a global perspective to understanding the pressures people face across a wide range of roles and industries. Her experience spans clinical work, research, and organizational settings, giving her insight into both individual experiences and the systems that shape how people work and live.

Dr. Foster’s work emphasizes that burnout is not a personal weakness, but a complex response that develops differently across individuals in the context of sustained work-related pressures and misalignment. She is particularly interested in the interpersonal and organizational dynamics that influence well-being, communication, and performance. Her background in conflict management, supported by training through the University of California, Irvine, informs a practical and grounded approach to complex workplace challenges.

Dr. Foster works with individuals, teams, and organizations across diverse industries, offering evidence-informed strategies that support clarity, resilience, and sustainable performance. Her work emphasizes awareness, reflection, and practical action rather than quick fixes.

She is the author of Reality Check: Recognize Burnout, Prevent It, and Discover How to Live Well, a practical guide designed to help readers recognize burnout early and respond in ways that support long-term well-being.

Based in Calgary, Alberta, Dr. Foster collaborates locally and internationally with those committed to creating healthier, more sustainable ways of working and living.
