Join us for an intimate, hands-on herbal workshop honoring rose as a heart- and womb-centered plant ally. Together we’ll explore rose’s role in emotional healing, nervous system support, and ritual bathing practices.

Participants will create a custom rose bath salt blend using mineral-rich salts, dried rose petals, and complementary herbs for grounding, softness, and release. You’ll leave with your handcrafted bath soak and guidance for intentional use at home.

Working with Miranda and The Mothership was the best decision my wife and I made leading up to, and through, our son's birth! Classes and videos are one thing - having Miranda guide you as you prepare for childbirth and go through it are totally different. Miranda was there for us every step of the way, educating us, checking in on us, calling and meeting with us, answering every question with fact-based research, and finally, helping create an amazing (hospital) birthplace atmosphere and I think a shortened labor and delivery time for my wife! Probably the best person you can call besides your OBGYN to be in the room with you for you and your partner. Not sure if we're having any more kids, but if we do, we'll be working with Miranda again! THANK YOU!!!!

Miranda, Thank you so much for supporting me in my postpartum healing journey. You had such a calming demeanor and a way of making me feel safe + comfortable in my skin and new body during such a vulnerable time of life. You are amazing at what you do, and I'm very thankful for the space you created in our home for me to physically heal as well as emotionally tend to myself.

I believe the placenta pills really helped. 3. Milk flow. From the beginning I was producing a good amount of milk for my baby. I always noticed that on days where I would forget to take the placenta pills my flow would decrease a little, but as soon as I took them I knew the next day my milk would be back up and running. Lastly, you were kind enough to make (gift) me placenta salve, which I used on my belly for stretch marks and on my breasts/chest for dry skin. Both have almost completely disappeared. I almost forgot, I gave birth unexpectedly, weeks early, but you showed up at the hospital just a few hours after to pick up my placenta. That shows me that you're reliable and passionate. Thank you. I will be referring every pregnant person that I know to you.
