Rachel Pipitone

Rachel Pipitone is a writer, designer, and community builder based in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. She's the founder of Southern Mikveh, a home for Jewish rituals, blessings, and community for those building family in their own time and their own way, where she writes a weekly blog on Judaism, life, and fertility. Her book, From the Narrow Place to Hope: A Haggadah Supplement for Fertility Journeys — featured in the Jewish News Syndicate — grew out of that work, offering liturgy and ritual for those navigating infertility, pregnancy loss, IVF, adoption, or other paths to parenthood. She also edited Refracted: The Jewish Anti-Fascist Liturgical Playbook for the Prismatic Shifting of Global Jewish Life by Devon A. Sojourner Spier, shaping the manuscript and designing its interior layout. Rachel runs Pipitone Creative, a marketing and design consultancy, and her writing has also appeared on Ritualwell.
