The qualified mental trainer knows what she’s talking about. Susi Bartmann has been there herself. “After a few dating ups and downs, negative thought patterns such as ‘Why do I always meet the wrong men?’ were subconsciously stuck in my head,”she remembers. “When I started my mental trainer course, I realised that I had to change my approach to dating if I wanted to meet Mr. Right.” Bartmann decided to convert her negative mindset into a positive one and started to write down a list of all the characteristics she would like her ideal partner to have. A few weeks later she gave a speech at a flirt event. “The topic was how to flirt with men as a woman and he was sitting in the audience,”

Bartmann recalls the first encounter with her very own Mr. Right. “After that speech, we talked to each other and we both felt an immediate spark between us. He met almost all the requirements on my list and in June we celebrated our two year anniversary.” Today, the professional flirting trainer is sharing the power of a positive mindset with others through eBooks, eTrainings, workshops and seminars:“My motivation is to help all those attractive singles who just can’t seem to find the right person by visualising their success and becoming more active so they can meet the partner they truly deserve. My eight-week training program is great for that as it includes many of my own experiences and is therefore pretty
entertaining,” smiles Bartmann. “It also comes with many practical exercises, which I find particularly important in the age of online dating. I encourage my clients to be active and start a spontaneous conversation with someone they like while they are in a bakery, on the tube, in a park or even on a plane. There are so many possibilities to meet someone new!” www.mentallove.at Portrait: Susi Bartmann
