<p><strong>Background:</strong> The number of workers in Sukoharjo Regency in 2020 decreased compared to 2019 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This is different from the number of MSME actors in Sukoharjo Regency, which has increased after the pandemic. During the Covid-19 pandemic, women entrepreneurs are experiencing a drastic impact on their lives. Most women are encouraged to become entrepreneurs, because their income is not enough if they only manage housework and take care of children.</p>

<p><strong>Methods:</strong> This study uses semi-structured interviews and Focus Group Discussions under a case study research design. The main resource persons involved were seven business actors in the micro sector who were female and as a supporting resource in this study was one person from the Cooperative Small and Medium Enterprises, and Trade Office of Sukoharjo Regency.</p>

<p><strong>Results:</strong> The results of the study provide a valuable overview of how the Covid-19 pandemic affects women entrepreneurs with aspects of household income, lifestyle, mental health, and sales of the business. Since the Covid-19 pandemic, household income has decreased. Likewise, the lifestyles of women entrepreneurs have changed. They struggled to meet the basic needs of their families and a decline in their standard of living when compared to before the Covid-19 pandemic. Most of the women entrepreneurs admitted that their mental health was affected by the unprecedented changes in conditions ever. Then business sales also decreased, this was supported by a decrease in the purchasing power of customers so it could threaten the existence of their business.</p>
