Cynthia Good is the CEO, founding editor and co-owner of PINK – the only national magazine exclusively for career-focused women. Now entering its third year, PINK has won numerous industry awards and, under Good’s leadership, inspired readers to have both a beautiful career and a beautiful life.

During the last quarter century working in journalism, Good has expressed her passion to make a difference in the lives of women and families. She has now launched two magazines; both walked away with the Grand GAMMA, the Southeast’s highest honor for a magazine. In 2007, PINK took home the Grand GAMMA (best of show award), along with seven other prizes including gold awards for Best Website and General Excellence. Previously, it won the award for Atlanta Woman magazine. PINK has also won two prestigious Folio Awards.

Before launching magazines and becoming an entrepreneur, Good worked at TV stations across the country, anchoring and reporting the evening news. While she was anchoring newscasts for WAGA-TV in Atlanta, the station became the top Fox affiliate in America. Good then created her own television show, “Good for Parents” and began syndicating TV news stories on issues faced by women and families. She won the Author of the Year award from the Georgia Writers Association in 2001 for her book "Vaccinating Your Child," now in its second edition. She has written six books in all, including "Words Every Child Must Hear."  

A valuable member of her community – and to the community of women at large – Good mentors young women in her company’s ongoing internship program. And over that past two years, PINK has raised more than $25,000 for Dress for Success and Girls Inc. Her magazine frequently donates ad pages to nonprofits that support women and girls.  

For nearly a decade she has served on the board of directors of Childkind, which places homeless, medically fragile children into foster care and facilitates adoptions. She is also on the board of Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, the largest pediatric children’s hospital in the Southeast. She also founded Chapter 11 Bookstores and started Atlanta’s Horseradish Grill Restaurant.

Good, who describes herself as a Famillionaire, and her husband live fully in with their two sons, Alden and Julien, their miniature horses Holly and Little Horse, their giant cat Katzie and their lovebirds.
