Overview
Stephanie Ruhle isn’t afraid to say what everyone else is thinking. Just ask hall-of-fame Hoosier basketball coach Bobby Knight, who described her as a “tiger zipped into a kitten suit.” But she’s not always so fierce. She’s the first to tear up when a small business owner claws out of credit card debt thanks to one her financial literacy segments, and the first to laugh at her own flops, because 1) they’re funny and 2) they help someone else.
In The New Rules, journalist and former Wall Street banker Stephanie Ruhle, brings both that ferocity, humor, and humanity to the page, delivering a candid, funny, and refreshingly practical guide to navigating work, money, relationships, risk taking, and the messy pursuit of a meaningful life. The high-finance jungle and the maze of childcare have more in common than you’d think, and you don’t need to break glass, kick anyone’s ass, or launch a hashtag campaign to win in either.
She’s learned a lot over the last thirty years in two highly competitive careers from some of the most influential people in the world, and is now sharing her hard-won wisdom—like when to shut up, how to make saving sexy, and the importance of building good credit and goodwill.
It wasn’t always this way. In the beginning, Ruhle was all sharp elbows and dyslexic thinking—constantly hustling to prove herself to compensate for her lack of credentials, connections, or reading comprehension skills. Back then, she thought that success meant being the toughest, the fastest, the one who pushed the hardest. Over time, she has come to learn that true success is about taking smarter risks, building stronger relationships, and creating real value.
Part personal story, part modern playbook, The New Rules is the irreverent, vulnerable, and unapologetically direct guide for a world where the old formulas no longer fit and it’s time to write your own rules.
