Helping You Thrive in the Empty Nest Years

We’re Anne & AnnMarie

best friends turned business partners, sharing real-life tips, honest encouragement, and smart Amazon finds for Gen X moms navigating the college years and beyond.

You raised your babies. Now what?

If you're staring at an empty bedroom wondering what comes next... we’ve been there.

This season can feel exciting and unsettling. You’re still mom, just in a different way now. Between college prep, identity shifts, and midlife changes, it’s easy to feel a little lost,  like you’re figuring it all out from scratch.

We’re here to help you rediscover what this chapter is really about, you.

Simply2Moms is a resource hub created by two Gen X moms who’ve walked this road too.

We simplify college prep, share home and wellness tips, and curate Amazon finds that actually make life easier. Whether you're helping your kid move out or reclaiming your routine, we’re here to make the transition less overwhelming (and a lot more joyful).

Meet the Moms

We’ve done the college drop-offs, the late-night Amazon orders, and all the emotional goodbyes.

We’re Anne and AnnMarie - neighbors turned framily - and we started Simply2Moms to create the kind of support we wish we had during the early empty-nest years.

We believe this season isn’t the end of motherhood, but the beginning of something new. From heart-to-hearts to how-to’s, we’re here to walk with you through it all.
