In this episode of Stress Mess: A Stress Less Podcast, I sit down with Krista Hayes, founder of Zone Walk Solutions, to explore how a simple but powerful mindset—assuming good intentions—can transform workplace communication and trust.
We cover:
- Why “assuming good intentions” is a game-changer for leaders and employees
- HR’s evolving role and the challenges of trust, anonymity, and demographic data collection
- How perception shapes relationships, including Krista’s story of a misunderstood note-taking habit
- The difference between the Golden Rule and the Platinum Rule in building stronger connections
- Why organizations should hire for culture addition rather than assimilation
- How linking employee, client, and partner experiences creates healthier ecosystems
This episode will give you fresh perspectives on communication, culture, and trust that you can bring back to your own workplace.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
