After 2010, Paul quit speed skating and in November 2011 started working as physician with the cycling team AA Drink-leontien.nl. In October 2012, she joined the Cyclingteam De Rijke-Shanks as performance adviser.

In 2009, a bribery scandal evolved suggesting that someone from the Dutch Olympic team tried to buy a starting place for Gretha Smit in the 5000 m race at the 2006 Winter Olympics. An amount of 50,000 Euro was offered to the Polish skater Katarzyna Wójcicka to drop out of the race, so that Smit, who has not qualified, could compete. Wójcicka refused, and in December 2009 made the case public. A commission was appointed by the Dutch Olympic Committee and Royal Netherlands Speedskating Association to investigate the matter and confirmed the bribery attempt.

In 2000, Paul returned to the Netherlands to work with junior skaters, but soon became a personal trainer of Gretha Smit. They formed a small "team DPA", which was later joined by other skaters and became Team Telfort. The team consisted of Jan Bos, Stefan Groothuis, Tom Prince, Remco olde Heuvel, Gretha Smit, Jochem Uytdehaage, Bob de Jong and Ralf van der Rice.

In the 1990s Paul moved to Canada where from 1992 to 1998 she was head coach of the national team. In 1995, she was named Coach of the Year. At the 1998 Olympics, the team won four medals, including gold for Catriona Le May. Paul then returned to the Netherlands to finish her studies, but very soon received a training offer from the Norwegian skating association and for two years coached in Norway.

In 1986, Paul won the Dutch Marathon Skating Championships. In 1988, she competed in two events in the Calgary Olympics. On the 3000 meters she was disqualified because of an error when crossing lanes with her opponent. On the 5000 meters she finished in 14th place.
