In May 2006, she graduated from the ground-breaking Masters in Applied Positive Psychology program at the University of Pennsylvania.

The MAPP program is led by renowned psychologist, Dr. Martin Seligman, and Ms. Miller is one of the only coaches selected for this unique education.

Ms. Miller is also a graduate of the Corporate Athlete program at the Human Performance Institute in Orlando, Florida, and takes numerous workshops at various education centers, such as the Albert Ellis Institute, to further her coaching skills on an ongoing basis.

Ms. Miller also volunteers on a regular basis in schools and organizations, including The Mental Health Association of Montgomery County where she has worked on the board to share coaching and Positive Psychology with those in need.

Ms. Miller's published books include "My Name is Caroline" (Doubleday, Gurze, iUniverse), "Feeding the Soul" (Bantam, Gurze, iUniverse) and "Bright Words for Dark Days" (Bantam). Her work has also appeared in "Full Lives" (Gurze), an anthology from those who have recovered from eating disorders. Her next book, "Positive Goals," will be published in 2007 and is the first book in a series of goal-accomplishment books.

At 38, I decided to become a certified scuba diver. Here I am in a dry suit and preparing to dive in cold water

Competing in sparring at a martial arts tournament. I began my quest for a black belt at 36 and achieved my goal five years later!

Coaching others to "GO FOR THE GOAL!" is the culmination of the decades of work both professionally and personally.

Now that I am in my forties, I am in the healthiest and most rewarding decade of my life. Through the process of challenging myself and setting aggressive goals, I've raised three wonderful children, participated in a rewarding 20-year marriage, created a home-based business, taken up scuba diving, traveled alone in foreign countries, gotten a black belt at the same time as my daughter, deepened close friendships, traveled to spiritual retreats, mentored other women in the formation of their own businesses, spoken at numerous colleges and universities about health and balance, and begun to perform as a piano accompanist at public musical performances.

Among the many sports I regularly participate in are running, hiking, walking, swimming, squash, biking, yoga, Pilates, rollerblading and racquetball. Because I believe in the marriage of sound mind/sound body, I make sure that my days are balanced between fitness, meditation, family time, work and friends.
