[1][2] Matausch had some relatives who were painters,[3] and she became interested in painting when she was in her teenage years,[4] something her father disapproved of because he believed she would abuse drugs and not obtain employment.
[8] Three years later, Matausch joined the national editorial staff of France 3, working as a society reporter for the Soir 3 programme.
[5] Matausch co-hosted with Hervé Claude the Agapè monthly spiritual adventure programme (similar to Le Jour du Seigneur) until 2009.
[8][7] In 2012, she joined the France 3 Pays de la Loire [fr] arts programme Ce soir avec vous, presenting a cultural section on it.
[3] Matausch took some time off work due to an injury she sustained in a sports accident in early 2016 and was replaced by Nathanaël de Rincquesen until 19 February of that year.
[10] She took further time off work between March and May 2022 due to illness and was replaced by Christophe Gascard, David Boéri [fr] and Sophie Le Saint during that period.
[14] Matausch published the book Instants Nomades in 2015, a collection of poetic images accompanied with text by Stéphane Beau [fr].
