About the Speaker: 

Jacque Williams is not just an entrepreneur, she is a Gullah Geechee Herbalist, Alchemist, and Cultural Historian. Born and raised in the small community of Midway located outside of the seaport city of Georgetown, SC, Jacque’s roots run deep in the rich traditions of the Gullah Geechee people, who are the direct descendants of West Africans that were brought to the South for the purposes of rice production. Her upbringing with her “Big Mama”, Elizabeth Sumter and Grandmother Myrtle Gathers, immersed her in the healing wisdom passed down from generations. That very same wisdom is what Jacque infuses into her brand Passage Products, creating handcrafted teas and skincare products that are enjoyed by customers all around the world.
