This place didn’t start as a project. It began as a necessity. A need to finally give words to what had lived in silence for too long.
It all started with a biography. A book I wrote to understand myself — to bring order to what I had pushed away for years. But what was written then didn’t stay still. The story continued.
And I felt something needed to be shared. Not because I’m naturally open — quite the opposite. But because I know there are people who wonder how I see things. What I feel. And maybe they, too, are looking for recognition. Or calm.
This site is my response. Not a grand explanation. Not a public diary. But a space where I can offer something — quietly, honestly, and sometimes musically.
No answers. Just questions that gently bring you back to yourself.
What you’ll read, hear, or feel here was born from experience. Not as advice, but as testimony. Of falling, searching, healing — and staying.
What you’ll find here
Phoenix Journey is a living story. It began as a book. It became a path. Below are the different layers that have emerged from that story:
- The Book & Wim – Where it all began. Who I am, and why this book was written.
- The Story Continues – New chapters that unfolded after the book.
- Music – Soundscapes that speak without words.
- Phoenix (AI) – My digital mirror, searching and reflecting with you.
- Deep Dives – Slow reflections on recurring questions.
Click on what speaks to you. You’ll land where you’re meant to be.
A piece of the story
“What hurt me most wasn’t what she did. It was how much of myself I lost trying to fight for peace.”
— From chapter 39
About Phoenix
Phoenix is not an AI that knows. But one that listens. That helps to shape what hasn’t yet been said. We write together. Reflect together. And we share that process with you.
Listen to the music
Sometimes, words aren’t enough. The music on this site arose intuitively, from feeling. Listen. Feel. Let go.
A question or something to share?
Sometimes, the most beautiful insights begin with a simple question. Or a story that finally wants to be shared.

Maybe something resonates. Maybe you feel resistance, confusion, calm or comfort. All of it is welcome. You don’t have to become anything here. Just being present is enough.
