What if soccer was more than just a game—what if it was the bridge between legacy, discipline, and building a powerful personal brand?

In this episode of The Pauline Chilton Show, we sit down with Luis Rozo—Colombian-born entrepreneur, strategist, and founder of Pro Elevate XI—who is helping athletes rise both on and off the field.

Luis moved to the U.S. in 2008, studied economics, and built a corporate career. But when his father, a lifelong FIFA referee, passed away, Luis was drawn back to the sport that shaped his childhood. Now, through Pro Elevate XI, he mentors athletes to sharpen their discipline, build their personal brand, and turn passion into opportunity.

In this powerful conversation, we cover:

• What Luis learned from his father’s legacy as a FIFA referee
• His journey from Colombia to the U.S. corporate world—and back to soccer
• Why discipline and mindset matter as much as talent
• How Pro Elevate XI helps athletes develop both on-field performance and off-field branding
• Stories of young players transforming their lives through mentorship and opportunity

If you’re an aspiring athlete—or a parent supporting your child’s soccer journey—this episode is a must-listen.
