Nafeza 2 world - England front-rower Muir scored one of eight tries as Gloucester-Hartpury thrashed Exeter 50-19 in the semi-final two weeks ago, to reach the final at Sandy Park, Exeter, this weekend.
Muir - who joined the club in 2022 - believes the secret to the team's success is their togetherness off the field.
"We just have such a connection off the pitch and I think that's what really has made us play well on the pitch because we all love each other, we want to play for each other and it's just a great team to be a part of," she said.
"Winning always makes you happier but, even after the loss against Sarries, we all had a social where we bonded a lot more."
Gloucester-Hartpury aim to do what only Saracens have done before in the Women's Premiership and win back-to-back league titles.
Head coach Sean Lynn, who was appointed in 2020, said it would be "truly special" to be crowned champions again.
"The amount of effort that this group of players, the staff, the support staff, everybody has put in, we'll make sure we'll enjoy that," he said.
"We're just going to be us. Small things will change in our defence systems just on what Bristol will bring - very different to Exeter.
"We can adapt, we're going to try and see if we can take Bristol out of their comfort zone."
