Founder/Lead Consultant
Shelneka Marsalone
Shelneka Adams Marsalone is the Founder and Lead Consultant of We Got Goals, LLC. She established WGG with an emphasis on well-being and mindfulness. Through her work, she discovered that in order for individuals to effectively engage in well-being and mindfulness practices, they must first be fully present—mentally, spiritually, and physically. This led her to explore barriers that hinder participation, revealing that the very obstacles preventing authentic self-expression often also impede overall engagement and presence. Shelneka uses her expertise to support and coach educational and organizational leaders through consulting, professional development, and strategic partnership.
