“From the Wild Edge is a course unlike any other in which I have participated. The breadth and depth of the layered, integrated content - from myths featuring female figures, to deep journeys through our body systems, to herbal recipes to make in our own kitchens - will nourish all aspects of my life.”
Erinanne Harper,
Southern Gulf Islands, B.C.
“The Wild Edge course was comprehensive, accessible, beautifully packaged, and delivered with expertise. Dr.Karley and Seraphina both have a wealth of knowledge to share and did so with love and grace. I loved how the teachings include the body, mind, emotions, and spirit. My health will be better over my whole lifetime."
Within each human being is an intuitive way of knowing.
Many modern women suffer the consequence of not being raised with the intergenerational wisdom that can nurture a deep relationship with one’s own intuition.
Our intuition is an inner guidance system that helps us to navigate the challenges of life, illness, and the complex initiations life presents to us. It also helps us make important decisions about our health, our spiritual evolution, and our relationships.
The construct of the modern world has taught women to shut down and ignore their intuition from an early age, leading to crisis and even depression. So many of us have learned to ignore what was instinctual.

Module 1 - Remembering
“She decided to see how her life would change if she dropped the assumption she needed fixing.” - Amy Rubin Flett
First, we awaken. With the myth of Persephone as our guide, we open our eyes to remember that we come into the world whole. We learn about the innate seasons and rhythms encoded in our DNA, inherited from our mothers, and we learn to make herbal medicine to nourish these cycles and design rituals to honor our inner seasons.
This module is a remedy for:
The spell of forgetting – forgetting that we are born whole, worthy of love and belonging, and that we stand on the shoulders of wise women across both space and time.
Module 2 - Cast Out to Sea
With Cassandra The Prophetess as our mythic guide, this module maps out the common phenomenon of how in a woman's early life, she turns to the masculine pattern of striving towards perfection and living from the left brain. This betrayal of her inner rhythm is a setup for anxiety, depression, and the crisis between fear and intuition. We examine the phenomenon of medical gaslighting of women's symptoms, make nourishing herbal formulas for the heart to unwind the knot of anxiety, and cultivate an antidote for fear.
This module is a remedy for:
Overwhelm, burnout, weariness, perfectionism, and shame.
Module 3 - The Quest
With Artemis The Huntress as our guide, we look at how we can spend our early years trying to soothe an inner dissatisfaction and satisfy the yearning to heal by outsourcing power to fad diets, trends, or gurus promising perfection. In this module, we build a deep relationship with our inner sight and learn about the importance of our adrenals and thyroid. We reclaim those lost, abandoned parts of self that we outsourced to others, and embark on the beautiful work of strengthening our relationship with our deep self.
This module is a remedy for:
Self-doubt, codependency, and the dis-ease of looking elsewhere.
Module 4 - Intuition
You are on top of the world, but you don't recognize yourself. Change is afoot. You have entered the Dark Wood.
With Vasalisa & Baba Yaga as our guides, we sharpen our intuitive skills to empower ourselves with The Wise Woman way of deep listening and continue to peel away that which no longer serves our whole being. We dig into the digestive system, and the gut-brain connection, fine-tune our ritual skills and strengthen our trust in our own inner compass.
This module is a remedy for:
Lack of connection, self-discipline, and trust. Use this lesson to build resilience and enhance intuition.
Module 5 - Death
When the universe conspires to support us, we can become sick, relationships come to an end, or we may even experience a breakdown that has catapulted us in an unexpected direction. With Selkie Woman as our guide, we learn that in order to listen to our soul’s true purpose, we must relinquish the attachment to the identity we had built over decades. We will explore the manifestations of anxiety, depression as responses to self-betrayal and the language of our nervous system. We learn the importance of nutrients and turn to the wisdom of ancestral magic to help us in times of crisis and transition.
This module is a remedy for:
Self-betrayal. Use this lesson to make radical changes, overcome adversity, and transform breakdowns into breakthroughs.
Module 6 - The Return
With Wolf Woman as our guide, we learn nothing is wasted, and what dies becomes fertile soil to nurture future growth. We turn to the menopausal years and examine what happens to the aging woman's body and the knowledge that resides in her very bones. We make herbal medicine that strengthens the matrix of our tissues and keeps our minds clear. We celebrate choosing to live life from our essence, from here forward, seeing the world through wizened eyes.
This module is a remedy for:
Feeling lost and untethered. Use this lesson to navigate life transitions with clarity.
Module 7 - Emergence
We walk the spiral of life and find ourselves returning to our innate power. We recognize that we are made of the same elements as the entire cosmos, and that we are powered by the same forces as volcanos and supernovae. The myth of Psyche and Eros supports us in our integration and emergence. The way of the wise guides us towards trusting our body, including pain signals, as we look at inflammation and reading the signs of the body. We turn to herbs to feed our well of wisdom, to soothe, and/or to increase available energy.
This module is a remedy for:
Soothing a weary soul. Use this lesson to regain energy and vitality, return home to yourself, and build confidence.
Module 8 - In Service
We close the program by celebrating the return home to self. The goddess Brigid teaches us how to be rooted to our well of wisdom. We have learned the gifts bestowed by our plants allies and know how to integrate them. We discover that simple rituals can be life-changing. This is the new normal. You are radiant in your wholeness. You have the tools, and the community support, to maintain this radiance. Your basket is full of new, life-affirming resources, and you have the energy to serve your community. You embody the love and the grace of the wise woman.
This module is for:
Thriving, building community, celebrating, magic, and belonging.

Meet Your Guides
Karley and Seraphina saw each other as opposites. Seraphina has a deep attunement to nature, moving through the world trusting unseen forces in a feminine way. Karley possesses strong masculine power that could conquer and move mountains when harnessed.
They came together, initially seeking each other's medicine, and then collaborated to evoke the powers of fire and create something greater. Their combined experience of over 30 years, working with thousands of women as doctors, herbalists, teachers, and priestesses, and being mentored by world-renowned luminaries, led to the birth of "From The Wild Edge: A Feminine Path Home."
Seraphina Capranos
Herbalist. Ritualist. Homeopath
After suffering from a health crisis at the age of 16, Seraphina was cast into the depths of spiritual and shamanic initiations throughout most of her life—becoming an initiated priestess in the Reclaiming Tradition and spending 10 years as a Toltec apprentice. But despite the decades of learning ancestral healing and ceremonial magic, it was the thousands of women she sat with as both students and patients that were her greatest teachers.
Listening to their stories of loneliness, spiritual crisis, divorce, infertility, anxiety, burnout and people-pleasing, she began to recognize the pattern and natural arc of the soul’s evolution. Identifying where women were in their healing journey, she developed a skill for guiding their soul through these transitions with the help of the unseen world, to heal, then anchor and re-connect to their inner compass, and bloom.
Dr Karley Denoon ND
Physician. Naturopathic Doctor
Growing up with the grit and drive to always achieve more, Karley was drawn to the path of a successful physician. It was through a very busy practice, sitting with hundreds of women day in, day out, hearing their pain and observing how it manifested in their physical bodies—that she saw that people with the same diagnosis, prognosis, and sometimes even treatments, could have completely different outcomes.
Seeking to understand the complex picture of medicine, Karley looked beyond the pills she could prescribe. As she began interconnecting the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of healing, she observed how the patients who were deeply connected to the natural world and to community had a resilience in them that strengthened their vitality. Karley embodies the power of body wisdom, resiliency and deep connection to the natural world. These qualities make her an inspiring leader and teacher.
Danielle Emery

“ Dr. Karley Denoon's approach to sharing Wise Woman Wisdom was so authentic and relatable. I left each session feeling more empowered, connected to my body. The experience is transformative, and you'll walk away with not just knowledge but a sense of empowerment and sisterhood that lingers long after the circle ends."
Karen Clark
Author The Path of She
“Seraphina is a rare jewel. With power and presence she guides women to find their way home to their own soul's wisdom. Seraphina has worked with thousands of students and clients from all over the world. And as she has done thousands of times before, she will hold your soul and your journey as precious, sacred, and she will meet and guide you from exactly where you are now. ”
Jill Cohen
San Francisco, CA
“Seraphina is incredibly knowledgeable, generous, and patient as a teacher and mentor. She is a truly gifted storyteller. I learned so much by being introduced to herbs one at a time, tasting them, making medicine with them, using them as food and growing them. I feel as if I have just scratched the surface of what is possible and I now have the framework I need to apply to any herb I wish to work with.”
