Abstract: Women entrepreneurs are a vital contribution to today's economy, yet there is still a dearth of research on women entrepreneurs.The main part of the study presents an analysis of 54 women entrepreneurs in three districts of Lesotho, namely Maseru, Mafeteng and Mohale's Hoek.The Ministry of Trade and Industry in Lesotho provided a database of entrepreneurs in Lesotho.The survey instrument used was a structured questionnaire which was administered at women entrepreneurs in Lesotho and a response rate of 72 % was achieved.The results of the analysis revealed the dynamics of women entrepreneurs in Lesotho.The main dimensions explored include:• To my husband Tabo who supported me for years, companion, confidante and above all friend.• To my sons, Lira and Lithapelo, and daughter, Litlhare who sacrificed their mother's love during my studies.• To all the women entrepreneurs who took part in this research. Above all:• To the Holy Trinity who guided me in all actions that I took.
