Despite the Limits
My name is Scot Storey, and I created this podcast, “Despite the Limits” to provide short conversations aimed at helping leaders grow professionally and personally. As a lifelong student of human connection, leadership, and communication, I am passionate about shaping the growth and capabilities of leaders. My personal journey in leadership development has been shaped by a career of service in the US Army’s Special Operations Forces leading numerous teams from just a few operators to organizations several thousand people strong, with the Army’s Rangers, Green Berets and Civil Affairs units in some the world’s most remote and arduous conditions. I believe in the power of a good story to shape personal connections and help people reach their full potential. That is what this podcast is all about.
Let’s have a conversation!

Despite the Limits
An Axe to Grind
This is episode 15. The summer heat had me thinking about a trip my wife and I took to Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula last summer. One memorable part was a kayak trip in Moose Pass, where there is a water wheel with a grindstone and a sign that reads, “Moose Pass is a peaceful little town, if you have an axe to grind, do it here.”
I explore how it now appears that society expects us to no longer respect those who disagree with us. What is the impact of this? What can we do? Perhaps more importantly, what should we do?
Here is a link to a YouTube video about Moose Pass.
