You're running on fumes
The work gets done, but the energy behind it is gone.
Founders · Freelancers · High-achievers
You built
something real.
So why are you
still guessing?
Direct 1:1 clarity coaching for people who need an honest answer about what comes next.

Who this is for
You don't need fixing.
You need room to think straight.
There's a big decision
Raise, pivot, hire, quit, go solo. You keep circling it.
You lost the why
What you built no longer matches the reason you started.
You want someone who gets it
Not a corporate coach. Someone who knows founder reality.
How I work
Three parts of the same conversation.
The method
The NAKED framework.
N
Name the truth
What is actually happening? What are you avoiding?
A
Align your direction
Choose the future that fits your business and life.
K
Know your numbers
Runway, pricing, capacity, profitability and risk.
E
Engineer the strategy
Clarify the offer, client, positioning and priorities.
D
Do the next brave thing
Turn insight into commitments and action.
About · How I work
I ask the question you've been avoiding.
I'm Jakob Blei, founder of NAKED THOUGHTS — a podcast and community connecting founders, creators and freelancers across Europe.
After 6+ years in startup finance and fundraising, I know what the numbers look like when someone is quietly burning out behind them.
You talk. I listen hard. Then I ask the thing nobody else does. We leave with decisions, not homework.
Problems we attack
The conversations you keep postponing.
- I want to leave employment, but I don't know whether my business is viable.
- I have too many ideas and cannot choose one.
- I have clients, but my offer and pricing are unclear.
- My business is growing, but I feel disconnected from it.
- I'm constantly comparing myself and questioning whether I'm good enough.
- I don't know whether to stay, pivot or shut the whole thing down.
