Help me clarify my career priorities. Ask me ten questions, one at a time, about what energises me, what drains me, how much money, flexibility, status, learning and meaning matter to me, and the kind of people I like working with.

Then rank my top five values, describe three types of roles that fit them, and note any trade-offs I will have to accept. My current role: [CURRENT ROLE].

Pro tip: Notice which answers you hesitate on; those usually point to the real priorities.
