This paper presents the results of a research-intervention process which objective was to offer psycho-social attention to a group of people, the majority of which were women, linked to a formation program for entrepreneurship in Cali. The main issues of mental health and the effects of attention process are identified, through interviews in depth and a survey of a psychological well-being to a sample of the participants. The identified problems are the overload of women in their family and business role, the difficulty to delegate and make decisions, and the experiencing of family abuse predicaments. The main results of the intervention are the mobilization towards decision making, the delegation of functions, the development of self-confidence and the active search of solutions regarding situations of abuse.
