World Leaders: Yohl Ik'nal

World Leaders: An important distinction in #HerStory is an emphasis on leading over ruling and the way women often inspire their people, rather than inspiring fear. Our World Leaders palette showcases the Compassion, Wisdom, and Strength these women wield, their Regal bearing, and the (sometimes) quiet Resolve that shaped their nations, in bold, warm shades of coral, red, fuchsia and violet.

Yohl Ik?nal (Regal - Compassion - Wisdom) This Mayan Queen, Lady Heart of the Wind Place, took rule under mysterious circumstances and kept the throne for 21. While Palenque was subjugated by neighboring invaders, Lady Heart successfully led her people in rebellion before her death. Her colors are a variegated violet to coral.
