Who is Shaun Flores?

Shaun Flores is a mental health activist and speaker.

What are Shaun Flores main achievements?

Diagnosed with OCD in 2022, Shaun has turned his struggles with depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation into a mighty mission to raise awareness about OCD. His advocacy for mental health has led him to speak at a variety of high-profile events and conferences, where he shares his journey and expertise on mental health.

Shaun has worked with leading corporations and institutions, delivering workshops and talks to the likes of Panasonic, NHS trusts, Men’s Health UK, and several educational institutions. His work with charities like MIND and CALM further solidified his standing in mental health advocacy.

In addition to his activism, Shaun has made significant contributions to the media, having written over 20 articles on OCD and mental health, appeared on various podcasts, and even had his personal story covered by Channel 4,  BBC, Metro & Mens Health UK.

Shaun’s previous experience as a commercial model for well-known brands such as Uber, Peloton, John Lewis, and Walkers adds depth to his understanding of the pressures surrounding body image and masculinity—issues he frequently addresses in his talks.

Shaun, who currently advocates and works in the NHS, is a consultant with specialised knowledge in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. He draws from his lived experience and deep engagement with scientific research. Shaun’s consultancy work provides strategic insights and develops initiatives that enhance inclusivity, accessibility, and understanding of mental health issues.

What is Shaun Flores best known for?

Shaun is best known for his insightful and shockingly informative TEDx talks on neurodiversity, masculinity, and mental health. He brings to light the incredible number of individuals suffering with OCD in the UK and makes it his mission to use his influence to raise awareness. Shaun aims to deliver his third TEDx talk and in turn, raise funds for OCD, a mental illness which remains severely underfunded and under-researched.

Shaun regularly works as a consultant on projects that are promoting healthy masculinity. His experience in the modelling industry have strongly influenced his work on redefining masculinity and promoting healthier body image ideals for men. Shaun often visits schools, colleges, universities and mental health charities to discuss these issues.

Shaun Flores Top Talks:

Reframing Privilege: Challenging the Narratives That Divide Us

This talk breaks out of the echo chamber that often surrounds discussions of privilege. It challenges conventional wisdom by examining privilege through social justice and conservative lenses and incorporating insights from The Unfair Advantage and Malcolm Gladwell’s David and Goliath. It encourages audiences to rethink their views on power and opportunity.

Beneath the Surface: Unmasking the Hidden Realities of Anxiety and Depression

In a world that never stops, anxiety and depression often thrive unseen. This talk goes beyond clichés, offering a raw, authentic exploration of what it means to live with these conditions. I share my experiences, discuss modern life’s paradoxes, and offer unconventional strategies for managing mental health.

A Hunter in a Farmer’s World: The ADHD Story by Shaun Flores

This talk delves into the evolutionary theory behind ADHD, exploring how traits once essential for survival are now seen as disadvantages in a structured world. I challenge common misconceptions, discuss the impact of modern technology on ADHD, and highlight how ADHD can be harnessed as a superpower.

Redemption Culture, Not Cancel Culture: Calling People In, Not Calling Them Out

In an era of deep divisions, this talk advocates for a shift from cancel culture to a culture of redemption. By exploring the dangers of thought policing and the power of open dialogue, I encourage audiences to move beyond calling people out and towards calling them in, fostering a more inclusive and understanding society.
