Rafa Kalimann reveals burnout after Barretos festival
Presenter and influencer Rafa Kalimann has shared that she experienced a period of severe exhaustion, or “burnoutzão,” following her participation in the 71st Festa do Peão de Barretos in São Paulo. She explained that after a tumultuous month of high demands, the subsequent drop in adrenaline left her feeling overwhelmed and unable to manage her mounting responsibilities.
Kalimann noted that her schedule includes professional commitments as a presenter, actress, and producer, alongside digital activities, social work in Africa, and personal responsibilities. To regain control, she began organizing her tasks by priority. During this process, she realized that she had not included herself as a priority in her own life, describing her realization as a “sinal de alerta” (warning sign) rather than a complaint.
