In this episode of Beyond Compatibility, I sit down with Victoria Brito, the founder of FitMeet Berlin—a fitness and social club helping singles in Berlin connect through shared movement, games, and low-pressure events. Victoria shares her own experience dating in Berlin for five years, the dating fatigue that inspired her to take action, and how she built a thriving community of over 3,000 members.
💡 About Victoria:Originally from Brazil and raised in the US, Victoria blends warmth, humor, and strategic thinking to create real-world spaces where singles can meet intentionally—without the stress of dating apps. Through running events, volleyball, yoga, and even themed games, she's changing the dating narrative, one meetup at a time.
