Women entrepreneurship in Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) plays a vital role in the local economy. However, women entrepreneurs often face complex emotional and psychological challenges due to their dual roles as housewives and entrepreneurs. Market uncertainty, social pressure, and lack of support from their environment further burden their workload. This study aims to explore the subjective experiences of women micro MSMEs, particularly in dealing with the psychological pressures of carrying out these roles. The research method used is a qualitative phenomenological approach with seven informants from the culinary, handicraft, and online trading sectors. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and non-participant observation, then analyzed using a thematic approach based on the Miles & Huberman model. The results of the study revealed four main themes: (1) the pressure of dual roles that often trigger stress and emotional exhaustion (burnout), (2) chronic anxiety related to fear of business failure and income instability, (3) spirituality and religious activities as meaning-based coping mechanisms, and (4) the importance of social support from partners, family, and community as a balance of emotional conditions. These findings confirm that the success and sustainability of women's businesses depend not only on economic capital or technical skills, but are also significantly influenced by mental health and the strength of social networks. Therefore, empowerment programs for women's MSMEs need to be designed holistically, encompassing psychosocial aspects, coping strategy training, and strengthening supportive and inclusive social networks.

The consumer goods industry, including the tobacco sector, plays a critical role in Indonesia's economy. Despite facing intense competition and regulatory challenges, this sector contributes significantly to national revenue through taxes and duties. Indonesia, with one of the highest smoking rates globally, saw substantial revenue from Tobacco Excise Duties (CHT), amounting to IDR 198.02 trillion in 2022. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated challenges by causing significant tax hikes, leading to reduced purchasing power and increased demand for illegal cigarettes. This study focuses on PT HM Sampoerna Tbk, a major player in the Indonesian tobacco industry, evaluating its financial performance using the Du Pont System for the years 2020-2022. The analysis reveals fluctuating Return On Equity (ROE), a declining Net Profit Margin (NPM), and Return On Assets (ROA), despite stable Total Assets Turnover (TATO) and Equity Multiplier (EM). The findings highlight the impact of external economic pressures and regulatory changes on the company's profitability and operational efficiency. This study provides insights into how financial performance metrics reflect the broader economic context and the effectiveness of management strategies.

The results of this study show that the amount of the company's cash flow during the 2019-2023 period shows that the company is in a liquid condition when assessed in terms of its operational activities. With the ratio analysis that has been done, it can be concluded that there is an increase in cash flow, especially in operating activities each year and the company's ability to overcome its current liabilities can still be overcome. This shows that PT. Telkom Indonesia (Persero) Tbk is in a fairly good position during the 2019-2023 period.
