After her departure from the WNBA in 2003 Moos returned to California and became a ACE Certified Nutrition Consultant and Personal Trainer, running the FITT4Life guided training. She attended the University of Southern California and completed her Master's Degree in health communication management, while working for Marlborough School in Los Angeles. She currently resides in Los Angeles.

In her work as a Certified Nutrition Consultant and Personal Trainer Moos has chosen to focus on the biological, psychological and social elements that affect adherence in exercise programs and healthy eating. She also focuses on reducing stress levels and increasing endorphins levels which she has said has a direct impact on the body. Carolyn works with elite athletes to manipulate body composition for ideal performance and lower risk of injury through cross-training, yoga and strategic sport specific nutrition and training. She also works with type II diabetics, mothers-to-be and teen girls who seek to maintain healthy bodies.

Moos has said her goal, which has been shaped by Basketball, Stanford, FIBA, WNBA in combination with her education, is to change people's lives, change the approach to preventative health versus treatment, alter the approach within the health-care system and empower elite athletes to extend their careers and young student-athletes reach their full potential on and off the court. She really enjoys children and works with young boys and girls as well as teens and elite athletes.

Moos has also dabbled in modeling. One being the ZsuZsi Zswimwear, viziuszo and other female athletic swimwear. In June 2010, Moos became ambassador for Long Legs, a Canadian fashion label that caters for tall women.

Famous quotes containing the word career:

    I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.
    Ruth Behar (b. 1956)

    Work-family conflicts—the trade-offs of your money or your life, your job or your child—would not be forced upon women with such sanguine disregard if men experienced the same career stalls caused by the-buck-stops-here responsibility for children.
    Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)
