Deion Sanders isn’t just a coach on the field; his social media presence and interviews showcase his skills as a life coach too. Now, he has put those skills into his new book, “Elevate and Dominate: 21 Ways to Win On and Off the Field.” In the book he openly shares his experiences – the wins and losses, successes and struggles – offering practical principles for daily life.

Currently, the Colorado Buffaloes‘ head coach is actively promoting the book with a tour across ‘prime’ cities, signing copies and engaging with fans. His recent appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show also highlights his dedication to sharing his message beyond the playing field. However, financial gain isn’t Coach Sanders’ primary goal with this book. For the millions-worthy “Coach Prime” this book is something more.

In a recent appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Deion Sanders discussed more about his new book. He also candidly shared the driving force behind his new launch.  Deion said,  “I didn’t do a book because I wanted to make money. I did a book because…..it’s a way to get to people that I wouldn’t normally reach and everyone has a coach.” He also poked Kelly, asking if a gifted singer like her had a vocal coach and the singer confirmed it.

Deion then pointed out that everyone has coaches in their careers, regardless of the field – sports or anything else. However, he highlighted that guidance for daily life is often lacking. That’s where “Coach Prime” wants to step in. “I want to be your Coach on a daily basis and that’s why I comprised this book,” he said. Thus this desire to be a daily coach fuels Deion’s new book, where he shares winning strategies as a proven champion.
