Getting custom flexible content field from post object

Hello all,
I am using the Post Object field to choose a post which is displayed on another page.

The documentation explains how to get value from a custom field like so:

$featured_posts = get_field('featured_posts');
$custom_field = get_field( 'field_name', $featured_post->ID );

But, the post uses flexible content fields, so this doesn’t work since the fields are sub_fields of the flexible content fields.

Question: how to get the value from my custom field?
Thanks!
