Thinking on a plan B, as you said, it super important… it can be a promotion to senior level what you want but sometimes the raise or extra free days can be negotiated while you keep building that promotion. It’s clever how you put it: the backlog of your career. Thanks for sharing your framework!!
I always struggled with "know your worth" and was always too afraid to ask for more money. I just changed jobs a few times. I would recommend to anyone to make some product friends at various levels to help figure out that worth if you struggle like I did.

Having this list of wins and achievements (even the areas where you think there’s opportunity to improve), has been very helpful for me this year.
It has gave me clarity on what are my weaknesses and be prepared for some arguments that my boss can have! 🤭
Thanks, Antonio!
