George Mullinax was raised to take risks and trust that he could rise to the challenge. That mindset carried him through the highs and lows of corporate life, and eventually led him to leave it behind entirely to start something of his own.
In this episode, George reflects on the unexpected turns that shaped his path, from family business losses and early morning side jobs to years of night classes while working full time. He also shares why he walked away from a VP-level role rather than uproot his family, and how he built a thriving media company with zero background in publishing.
George Mullinax is the owner of CMC Media & Marketing Group, the company behind CityScope, HealthScope, and several other Chattanooga-based publications. You can connect with him on LinkedIn (linkedin.com/in/george-mullinix-aa628ba).
