Information was determined purposively with the following characteristics: Adult women aged between 30-50 years, working at the same time as housewives, accompanied by work-family conflicts and had conflict resolution strategies. Collecting data using in-depth interviews, observation and document studies. The results showed that from 3 informants there were 2 informants who caused time-based work interference with family and 1 informant caused behavior-based family interference with work. Conflict resolution strategies or coping mechanisms used to resolve work-family conflicts by trying to be unburdened (resignation coping) and seeking social support. Another finding, the three informants view work-family conflict as part of the nature of life and all informants develop an attitude of acceptance of the life they live even though not everything is as expected.
