Social fragility of Indigenous Peoples engaged in entrepreneurial activity is a global concern. In this study, I explored the resilience of indigenous people engaged in entrepreneurial activities amidst disruptions outside their natural habitat. Using a qualitative descriptive design, I interviewed 10 participants whom I selected through purposive sampling. Using thematic analysis, I found that Badjao entrepreneurs face financial barriers, physical risks, and exhausting working conditions that limit their business opportunities. Despite these challenges, they demonstrate flexibility and adaptive social interaction, allowing them to build relationships and sustain their livelihoods. Their cultural endurance, rooted in a survival and family-oriented way of life, strengthens their resilience despite discrimination and limited resources. Local government and educational leaders may strengthen culturally responsive policies and programs to advocate for Badjao cultural endurance and resilience in livelihood. Exploratory factor analysis may be pursued to develop questionnaires aligned with the themes, and to apply mediation analysis using patience, resilience, and self-reliance as mediating variables.
