Hello! I’m Reverend Dr. Jen Peer Rich -- writer, artist, and consciousness explorer, though none of those words quite capture the wild, spiraling path I’ve taken to get here to who I am today. I was born a Miracle Baby, raised in the rubble of generational trauma, and shaped by chronic illness, queer becoming, caregiving, and the relentless pull toward reclaiming wholeness.

My life has never been linear. It’s been cyclical, cellular, and strange, more like a house with collapsing rooms and unexpected doorways than a straight road. Through it all, I’ve carried many selves. Not fractured, but multiple. Not broken, just vast.

My memoir, The Alchemy of Being a House, is the story of how I found a way to live inside myself again. It’s about ancestral pain and hard-won love, about inner voices that bark and bloom and guide. It’s about what happens when you stop trying to be one thing, and instead become a home for all of it.

I live by a lake in Florida with my wife, our magical daughter, and our pack of rescue dogs. These days, I’m living from the inside out—wild, whole, and unhidden.
