The Insider Guide to the Beat of Your City

#ohheyyy 👋 this one’s a little different — instead of a sit-down interview, this is a full Q&A in motion. Austin (one of the stretch practitioners at Stretch Zone Northfield) is walking me through exactly what he’s doing, why he’s doing it, and how it helps — all while I’m on the table. If you’ve ever been curious about assisted stretching but didn’t know what to expect, this video gives you the behind the scenes. ✨ Important part: Your first stretch is FREE, and when you mention Whitney, they’ll also hook you up with special pricing when you go in. Watch, learn, and see if this might be the missing piece your body’s been asking for. Have questions after watching?

#ohheyyy have you been to Stretch Zone in Northfield? I recently went back because my body was very clearly telling me it needed some extra care. I’m getting older, and leg pain decided to show up — which was my sign that it was time to actually listen. You all know I’m not really an exercise person, but I started doing Pilates with Janet at @fitnessconnection_pilates , and it’s been sooooo amazing. It helped so much that it’s now part of my regular routine. When I talked to my doctor about the leg pain, she suggested physical therapy, so I gave it a try, but it just wasn’t for me. And honestly, if I was paying a copay anyway, I realized I wanted to put that money toward something I had done years ago and loved — assisted stretching at @stretchzonenorthfield . Going back reminded me exactly why I loved it in the first place - so thank you Austin!!! I was so excited about how good it felt that I ended up talking with their management team, and they offered me something special to share with my community at the Northfield location. If you book at Stretch Zone Northfield, your first stretch is FREE when you mention promo code WHITNEY. When you’re there, they’ll walk you through any perks or specials available in-studio with my code. I’m genuinely grateful to have this as part of my wellness routine, and I love being able to share something that’s actually made a difference for me. 📍 1205 Tilton Rd, Ste 16, Northfield, NJ 08225 📞 (609) 867-9182 🔗 https://www.stretchzone.com/locations/northfield-nj Thank you to my girl @krystlejbailey for videotaping me 🤍 #stretchzone #selfcare #movement

#ohheyyy I am absolutely loving going to Pilates at @fitnessconnection_pilates with Janet. During this class we did the jumping boards - laying down, which is so cool to me - and it really helped my leg. I absolutely suggest trying a class to see what it’s all about, because you all know I’m not a workout gal haha. And this is great!! ➡️ fitnessconnectionpilates.com #pilates #jerseyshore @thecitypulse

#ohheyyy about last night … making fried eggplant and then eggplant parm! Yummmm! #cooking #eggplant #foodie

#ohheyyy we took tea time to prime time and had a blast!

But beforehand, the ladies decided to get some professional glam - at 5:30am 😩 - so shoutout to Catrina Arlene Makeup By Catrina and her glam squad for the super-early makeup—camera-ready perfection 💄 and to Alyssa Cristelli for the amazing spotlight on PHL17 morning show.

🎉 Congratulations to Byrdcage on celebrating one incredible year in Atlantic City! What started off as helping with the logo and some social media quickly turned into a fun project I never knew I needed. Along the way, I truly came to feel like family. And I am beyond proud of the entire ByrdCage team — a group of passionate, dedicated people I’ve known for many years. Especially Jason, who I basically grew up with. To witness not only their success but to have a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the hard work, late nights, and heart they pour into making ByrdCage what it is today is truly remarkable. Their love for community and commitment is a winning formula. ByrdCage may have opened its doors as a gay bar, but it’s so much more than that — it’s an inclusive, welcoming space for all. The entertainment is top notch, with DJs who know how to get the party started, live piano, live performances and so much more. And the food? Absolutely phenomenal. Their menu is homemade, carefully curated, mostly gluten free, and offers plenty of vegetarian options. There truly is something for everyone. Plus, the creative names for food and drinks add an extra dash of fun! From Industry Mondays to Free Flow Fridays, LaCage Saturdays, Sinatra Sundays, and everything in between, ByrdCage has rightfully earned its spot as the place to be in Atlantic City. Don’t forget — you can book your events, get gift cards, and keep supporting the people who make ByrdCage a community staple. ➡️ ByrdcageAC.com And most importantly, mark your calendar for **Saturday, February 7th** as they host their **1 Year Anniversary: Passport to Freedom** event — it’s going to be absolutely fantabulous! Learn more and stay up to date on upcoming events here: ByrdCageAC.com/events Congrats again!! Love to all! ❤️🌈 Here’s to many more years of love, laughter, and unforgettable nights at ByrdCage! 🥂❤️

#ohheyyy I made candied salmon again, came out a little salty, so I wonder if it was from that extra spice I added because the last few times I used the salt brown sugar brine situation, it wasn’t salty. Hmm. I think I used a different salt too, so I’ll have to figure it out. Other than that it did come out really good, hubby loved it! #candiedsalmon #recipe

#ohheyyy trying a cabbage boil during the snowstorm ha. Next time I’ll need to really add more flavor, but it was ultimately pretty good - disregard my face at the end haha. #snowstorm2026 #recipe

😂 #ohheyyy prepping for the storm like …. #snowstorm #newjersey

#ohheyyy since Gary stopped by and tried the onion cup soup dumplings, of course we had to let him give the steak shaped ice cream frozen dessert a whirl. What did he think? Check it out! #steak #icecream #tastetest

#ohheyyy I made the viral onion cup soup dumplings except I had to use regular vegetable dumplings - which fell apart - but nonetheless it came out really good! #foodie #recipe thanks Courtney Cook @thecitypulse

#ohheyyy here’s a 10-minute snippet of the upcoming residential, commercial and casino development in Atlantic City from today’s MBCA AC State of the City address by Mayor Marty Small Sr. 📍 Golden Nugget Atlantic City Sorry for the shakiness😩

#ohheyyy @mjdibenedetti and I had to check out all of the viral desserts at @lillavanillacakeshoppe since it’s in her hometown! And we did not skimp on our order, we pretty much bought everything in sight ha. Check it out as we try their viral crunchies in these flavors: “Raspberry” (double raspberry) “Pink Heart” (mango passion) “The Green Thing” (Dubai chocolate not GF) “Strawberry” (chocolate strawberry) “LOVE” (strawberry mango) “Ferrero Rocher” (hazelnut chocolate) “Orange” (chocolate orange) “Purple Heart” (Biscoff vanilla not GF) “Coconut” (coconut mango passion) “Coffee cup” (tiramisu not GF) #foodie #thecitypulse @thecitypulse

#ohheyyy trying steak shaped ice cream that tastes like strawberry 😂🍓 #steak #icecream

#ohheyyy quick P.S.A.- this really worked too! #brownsugar #quicktip @thecitypulse How to soften brown sugar!

Made Cottage Cheese Bagels this morning!! I thought they came out really good - may use more salt next time but for just throwing together the ingredients, it came out pretty awesome. The only bummer is that I ran out of my @soloveykitchen Caviar Honey Butter 😢❤️

#ohheyyy my cousin Robyn Perlman-Spencer made this homemade vanilla for me as a Chanukah gift, so I used it in my Brown Sugar Oat Milk Latte, and it is slammin’!! Nespresso Starbucks The City Pulse Oatly

#ohheyyy dinner last night at @lascalasfire @theoceanac was 💯🙌🏻. Thank you @bettymchugh24 and team for the excellent service! And 👀 I see you @djnomadofficial @bettys_real_life_photography_ @thecitypulse

#ohheyyy Ocean’s 18 Mini Golf & Bar just opened and AC got a glow-up. From first pour to last putt: light bites, clinked drinks, and two immersive 9-hole courses split across two levels. ⛳️ The sports bar is wall-to-wall TVs, and the holograms (yep—by the same innovators behind the Sphere in Vegas) are wild. ⭐️ Celebrity roll call: Christopher McDonald who played Shooter McGavin Happy Gilmore, JWoww, Sammi Sweetheart, plus a lineup of local celebs and creators. Real talk side note: I’ve been promoting A.C. and all of the fabulous experiences for almost two decades. Always maintaining a positive attitude even when it’s not reciprocated. And tonight I caught a couple of chilly moments from someone who I guess just can’t help themselves but be rude - which is a shame 🤷 No one deserves to be treated that way and especially to me who only does positive content, and most importantly has the best interest of the client/venue in mind. But, I digress - the overall vibe of the night was fun and electric. Tag your tee crew—who’s coming back with me to chase that hole‑in‑one? ⛳️

#ohheyyy my first @philadelphiaflyers game in the @tdbank_us suite at @xfinitymobilearena was a lot of fun! 🏒 They may not have won against the @nyrangers but there were still some pretty awesome winning moments 🙌🏻. And oh heyyy @shanemgillis ❤️ #flyers #rangers @thecitypulse

#ohheyyy I meannnnn ok 😂🙌🏻🙌🏻 goooo Gritty! You never know what you’re going to see at the @philadelphiaflyers game. 📍 @xfinitymobilearena @tdbank_us suite. #flyers #hockey

#ohheyyy I finally got the Caviar Honey Butter open thanks to my neighbors haha. But it was soooo good once I put it on the baked sweet potato. Definitely inspired by Courtney Cook. So good! @soloveykitchen #soloveykitchen Rockin my @victoriassecret sweatsuit and nails from @thepinkysnails @thecitypulse

#ohheyyy hubby and I stopped by Golden Corral in Bensalem with our friend Sam and were pleasantly surprised! It was clean, the food was solid, and the fried chicken was perfectly crispy 🍗. We finished with a fresh waffle and ice cream—such a nice touch 🍦—and loved the fun drink options 🥤. ➡️ Shout-out to Robert for the great service and to Diane, the manager, for being so friendly—the whole staff was really nice. They’ve got breakfast on weekends, too—definitely worth checking out. #goldencorral #buffet @thecitypulse @goldencorral @goldencorralbensalem

#ohheyyy words can’t express how grateful I am for Monique at Worlds of Wellness in Ocean City, NJ. She did a deep tissue, fascia releasing yet relaxing massage for me yesterday, with qi coils and more. It was exactly what I needed 🙏 You should check out all of their specialty services and they even have a Massage Therapist who specializes in stretch and athletic massage. There’s someone for everyone. ➡️ wowocnj.com 810 Asbury Avenue suite 214 Ocean City, NJ 609-938-0677 @wowocnj @moniquebottalico

#ohheyyy omg I was influenced again by Courtney Cook { IYKYK } and I made the @weetabixofficial breakfast with @missyjssnacksandtreats Carob Chocolate and it was slammin! #weetabix #breakfast

#ohheyyy hubby and I tried some of the famous “Drunken” specialties from @romanspizzahouseabsecon and to let me tell you, they were all bangin! Not shown in the video, are the vegan options available. When I got the Drunken Chicken Caesar and Drunken Burrata, hubby got the same thing but with a vegan chicken patty!!! So there is literally something for everyone! 🔥 And all of their pizzas have that fiery presentation ha! As hubby said, “That taste different than anything I’ve ever had.” 𝗕𝗔𝗡𝗚𝗜𝗡!! #romanspizza #absecon

#ohheyyy ⭐️𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗨 𝗜𝗧𝗘𝗠⭐️ hubby and I taste-tested a bunch of faves at Roman’s Pizza & Coffee House, but today’s video spotlights a delicious newbie: a super-fresh vegetable spread on crispy crostini. It’s so tasty—and so new—it doesn’t even have a name yet. Keep checking back so you can try it as soon as it hits the menu! romanspizzahouse.com @romanspizzahouseabsecon #RomansPizzaHouse #Absecon #asmr

#ohheyyy we are still smiling from all the fun we had celebrating @jeaninemariexo ‘s birthday at @harrahspoolac @harrahsresort Atlantic City! We checked into our room in the newly renovated Waterfront Tower, which was located right by The Pool Day Club 🙌🏻 We headed down to meet everyone, and I kept thinking how cool it was to escape the rainy day and be in this 82 degrees tropical oasis. As long time regulars of the venue during their nighttime festivities, it was pretty cool to have the day time experience to celebrate Jeanine’s birthday - and having bottle service made it even more special! Shout out to @dosofficiaal for keeping the party going! Then we had dinner with the ladies, and not only celebrated Jeanine’s birthday but also @therealangiexo as well 🙌🏻. Hanging with Colleen and Danubia also made everything so much more fun. Shout out to @djvitognj for the fun dance tunes in the lounge and Synergy Dance Band for finishing the night strong. If you’re planning a trip to Atlantic City, check out Harrah’s The Pool! #harrahsac #birthday #atlanticcity

#ohheyyy Happiest of Happy Birthday’s Jeanine!!! ❤️❤️❤️ @jeaninemariexo 📍 @harrahsresort @harrahspoolac #atlanticcity #happybirthday #thepool

#ohheyyy we had our annual AC staycation with friends at Atlantic Palace by Club Boardwalk Resorts, and it was a blast. @boardwalkresorts Atlantic Palace is located on the iconic Boardwalk, so we were steps from the casinos and the ocean 🌊🎲. Our suite had gorgeous ocean and skyline views, and we ended the night with a cozy dinner in the kitchenette. In the morning, we walked to @haydaycoffee for French Toast Lattes and a Loaded Chai ☕️. The kids dominated the arcade—Skee-Ball, air hockey, Pac-Man, and racing—before we headed to dinner at @resortscasino EastWinds for Edamame, Sushi, and Pad Thai 🍣. Dessert stole the show with the Mango Crepe Cake and the Volcano Bun 🍰. Thank you, Emily and Liqin! We wrapped up at the Candy Cane Lounge pop-up with face paint by Heather - @heatherartz_ - and plenty of dancing 💃. We’re already planning the next trip.
