Abstract

There is a need for single mothers to raise the ability to survive to face the complex challenges in their life. These challenges could be seen in work, finance, childcare, and social support. Therefore, developing self-resilience to solve problems and face challenges seems necessary to lead to a productive, healthy life. One way to be taken is to become an entrepreneur who initiates a business to guarantee the family’s economic stability. Several factors are seen to be contributing to the success of single mothers’ entrepreneurial activities, such as skills, training, motivations, and initiatives. This study focuses on the effects of the role of the entrepreneurial resilience and lifestyle of single mothers. Therefore, this study recommends that single mothers deserve assistance in their entrepreneurial journey in order to increase their independence and elevate the self-resilience to livelihood obstacles.
