One more nitpick—“help guide me” should be just “guide me”. The first version implies three agents—one doing the helping, one doing the guiding, and the one whose future is being discussed. There are only two agents really—HJPEV and you.
If “guide me” is too strong a term and you added in “help” to mitigate that, consider alternatives that suggest weaker agency—“show me a possible future” for instance.

Yeah, I didn’t want to give him too much credit. Do you think it would be better to though?
Edit: I’ll just change it to guide. That’s not too strong a word I don’t think.
