F*** Their Opinions

In this raw and reflective episode, Steph Flores takes us deep into the often-unspoken pressure to prove our worth—through our titles, our productivity, our ability to “hold it all together.” She unpacks how this invisible weight shows up in our day-to-day lives, quietly influencing how we show up in relationships, at work, and even in how we view ourselves.

Through candid storytelling and insightful self-inquiry, Steph traces the roots of this pressure—how early messages about value and validation shaped a belief that worth must be earned rather than inherently held. She explores how this belief system breeds burnout, disconnection, and a performative version of identity that feels safe but isn't truly authentic.

As the conversation unfolds, Steph challenges listeners to pause and reflect:

• Who am I when I’m not performing?

• What would it feel like to let go of proving and simply be?

She offers an invitation to rewrite our inner narratives, moving away from achievement as the only metric of success, and toward a more grounded, compassionate sense of self. One rooted not in doing, but in being.

This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt like they had to be “on” all the time. For those questioning if the version of themselves they show the world is really them—or just a polished mask created to earn approval. Steph reminds us that our value isn’t in what we produce, but in who we are beneath the striving.

Let this episode be your permission slip to exhale, get honest, and come home to yourself.
