Ad Astra per Aspera
The name “Ad Astra Coach Alliance” draws inspiration from the Latin phrase Ad Astra Per Aspera, meaning “To the stars through difficulty.” This phrase, also the Kansas state motto, honors our Kansas roots and heritage. It reflects the essence of the coaching journey—embracing challenges and growth on the path to achieving your highest potential. Just as the motto suggests, coaching helps you navigate obstacles to reach your goals and shine.
