The New Rules

Overview

The New Rules is a dating and confidence guide by Margarita Nazarenko. The book's own cover copy summarizes it as "The ultimate guide to being her. Confidence. Dating. Relationships." (raw/ig-carousel-last-night-we-celebrated-the-new-dkq2vxfusnh, slide 1)

Claim [synthesis]: Because the launch event documented here dates to May 2025, The New Rules precedes Margarita Nazarenko's later book Unbothered, positioning it as the earlier entry in the same confidence/dating brand. (raw/ig-carousel-last-night-we-celebrated-the-new-dkq2vxfusnh, header)

Author & Branding

The book cover credits Nazarenko as a "TikTok Sensation" (raw/ig-carousel-last-night-we-celebrated-the-new-dkq2vxfusnh, slide 1), and a variant cover shown later in the same carousel adds a podcast credit: "HOST OF THE HIT PODCAST BEING HER" (raw/ig-carousel-last-night-we-celebrated-the-new-dkq2vxfusnh, slide 11).

Claim [synthesis]: The layered cover credits — TikTok content, the Being Her podcast, and the book itself — tie The New Rules into a single cross-platform personal-development brand rather than treating the book as a standalone product, generalizing from the repeated cover variants and caption framing across the carousel.

Launch Event

The book's launch party was held at Merivale's Good Luck Restaurant Lounge in Sydney. Nazarenko's caption describes the night: "Held at the stunning Merivale Good Luck Restaurant, surrounded by the most thoughtful media and friends… it still doesn't feel real." (raw/ig-carousel-last-night-we-celebrated-the-new-dkq2vxfusnh, caption)

Menu cards at the event repeat the venue and book branding side by side: "Good Luck / RESTAURANT LOUNGE / THE NEW RULES" (raw/ig-carousel-last-night-we-celebrated-the-new-dkq2vxfusnh, slides 2, 8, 12, 14).

Attendees & Reception

Place cards across the carousel name guests including Jana Hocking, Millie Ford, Nadi Salame, Bianca Reinese, and Ellen Kourtis (raw/ig-carousel-last-night-we-celebrated-the-new-dkq2vxfusnh, slides 2, 8, 12, 14). Nazarenko's caption thanks "the women (and men) who came, who supported, who asked real questions and shared big dreams." (raw/ig-carousel-last-night-we-celebrated-the-new-dkq2vxfusnh, caption)

The caption frames the book's core message as: "when you decide to back yourself, everything changes. And that's what this book is about." (raw/ig-carousel-last-night-we-celebrated-the-new-dkq2vxfusnh, caption)
