Mathilde Bernard Funderburk (MBF)

Soulpreneuher

Have you ever thought about starting a business, only to end up buried in content that feels…

Dry. Bland. Bro-ish.

You know the kind:

Hustle harder.

Don’t sleep.

Grind until you burn out.

Force things.

Ignore your gut.

Copy the billionaires.

Hack the algorithm.

Sell sell sell.

Be anyone but yourself.

If that’s what it takes to be an entrepreneur… we’ll pass.

Because starting a business—especially one that’s close to your heart—can already feel overwhelming.

And when the only guidance out there feels soulless, it’s easy to think maybe you’re not cut out for it.

But here’s what we’ve learned (the hard way):

You don’t have to shove yourself into a box to be successful.

You don’t have to erase your softness, your intuition, or your humanity.

You can build something aligned, profitable, and powerful—your way.

We believe that business is spiritual.

That entrepreneurship is one of the most accelerated paths to self-growth.

And that the world desperately needs more women building their own thing.

That’s why we created Soulpreneuher, a Patreon community for intuitive, heart-led women who want to start and grow their business with soul, strategy, and support.

This community is for you if:

• You’re a spiritual and intuitive woman with a business idea (or ten)

• You want to build an online presence without losing your soul

• You crave business advice made for women—not repackaged tech-bro nonsense

• You’re interested in the energetics and spiritual aspects of entrepreneurship

• You want to learn the practical tools to build your dream without breaking the bank

Every month, we (Kris and Mathilde) will be going live to teach, share what’s worked for us (and what definitely hasn’t), and hold office hours so you can get personalized support as you build.

And we’re so excited to build with you.

This isn’t just about business—it’s about reclaiming your path, your voice, your vision.

Welcome to Soulpreneuher.

Let’s make magic 🪄

✨ If there is a dream then there is life✨

Hi, I’m Mathilde! 👋 

A coach, mentor, and professional dream architect!

I am passionate about helping the ones "who don't know what's next" to listen to their hearts (and guts!) while building lives they truly love. 

Over the past 10+ years, I’ve had the joy of leading teams, managing projects (from wine events to live coaching webinars), and empowering people to find clarity and confidence to pursue their passions.

What lights me up? 

Seeing someone realize their potential and take bold steps toward their dreams. 

Whether I’m mentoring a team, coaching an individual, or organizing impactful events, my focus is always on connection, collaboration, and creating space for people to thrive.

I’ve worked with diverse teams across industries:

→ guiding them to streamline processes, 
→ spark innovation, 
→and achieve big goals. 

As a leader, I’m all about balance: structure with flexibility, strategy with heart, and ambition with kindness. 

👀 Oh, and I’ve learned a thing or two about making things happen while traveling the world and managing my own online business. Talk about multitasking! 🌍

What drives me is knowing that everyone has something unique to offer the world. 

I’m here to help people uncover what that is, trust themselves, and take the next step—whether it’s launching a project, building a business, or simply finding clarity in what comes next.

If you’re looking for someone who can mix strategic thinking with heart-centered guidance (and maybe with some french twist to it), let’s connect! 

Together, we can turn big dreams into real, actionable steps. 🌟

I’m a bit of a walking contradiction.

(Sorry, not sorry) 

I grew up in a spiritual household but I always worked in corporate roles that were incredibly pragmatic and driven by logic.

So here I am - an amalgamation of the spiritual and the practical.

I blend the stuff that makes sense with the ‘non-sensical’.

And it is because of this that my life - and my client's lives - have done a complete 360 in both their internal and external world.

You see, you can form a solid step-by-step action plan, but without spiritual direction and a laser-focused vision, you can still feel lost.

You can do manifestation, visualization, astrological readings, and tarot card readings, but without practical execution, you can still feel stuck on the HOW.

Now, combine the two together and you have a recipe for infinite possibility.

If you’re a spiritually curious, corporate escapee (or soon-to-be) and you want to explore how to build a lifestyle business that promotes freedom in the truest sense…

The Spiritual Freedom Blueprint offers everything you need to thrive in your transition.

“Mathilde has a unique gift of taking her client's big ideas and visions and mapping them. By doing this she was able to create a strong foundation for the business. Her attention to detail and process is unparalleled. Whether starting a business or shifting gears or looking to add more intention to your existing business, do yourself a favor and hire Mathilde. It will save you time, money, and energy in the long run” - Melanie

It’s a crazy ride.

Currently we offer free live audios that focus on ALL aspects of the business - from money management, productivity, visualization, mindset, branding, and so much more.

Soon, we’re going to offer workshops, co-working sessions, and more. So please stay tuned!

Valincia Bennett, Business Strategist

My first LinkedIn post hit 50,000+ views

My first client came when I had just 500 followers

I didn’t expect LinkedIn to change my life.

But it did.

I’ve had huge wins here:

• Hit multi-6 figures before 10K followers
• Signed clients who became long-term friends
• Built a business where 90% of clients come from here

But I’ve also:

• Gotten locked out for 2 months
• Obsessed over likes and views
• Doubted if I should keep posting

This platform has tested me.

But I’m grateful I stayed in the game.

Now, I help others stop guessing and start getting real results.

If you’re serious about making LinkedIn work for you:
