I'm Matt, a self-confessed skeptic from Norfolk, and The Psychic Explorer is my honest, unfiltered account of what happens when grief cracks you open to something you can't quite explain. From my first terrifying platform event at a spiritualist centre, to one-to-one readings, mediumship circles, and conversations with guests who've walked their own extraordinary paths — this is a real, grounded look at psychic and mediumship development as it actually unfolds. No performance. No pretence. Just the questions, the doubt, the breakthroughs, and everything in between. If you're curious about life after death, developing your own psychic abilities, or simply exploring spirituality without the woo-woo, pull up a chair. You're in good company.

Anthony grew up in rural Illinois in a conservative household shaped by evangelical religion, and spent years quietly suppressing two enormous parts of himself: his sexuality and his gifts. In this episode, Anthony opens up about what it was like to grow up gay and psychic in a cornfield, to pray the gay away, to have his witchy books confiscated at fifteen, and to eventually find his way back to all of it. We talk about religious trauma, the surprising parallels between coming out of the closet and coming out of the broom cupboard, and how stepping into his authentic self transformed not just his life — but his relationship with his Dad too. Warm, funny, and deeply real. This one's for anyone who's ever felt like they had to hide who they were. Happy Pride. 🌈🔮✨ Matt x _______________________________________ Anthony's Links: Website Instagram Facebook The Psychic Path Podcast (Spotify) The Psychic Path Podcast (Apple) _______________________________________ Matt's Links: Instagram Threads Facebook TikTok Sunday & Wednesday Explorers 💫 📅 Sundays 7:15pm - 8:30pm (UK time) Wednesdays: 7:15pm - 9:15pm (UK time) 📍Zoom Meeting ID: 873 7690 8008 🔑 Password: LOVE 👉 Tap here to join _______________________________________ Helplines: 🇬🇧 Switchboard - 0800 0119 100 LGBT Foundation - 0345 3 30 30 30 🇺🇸 The Trevor Project - 1 866 488 7386 -or- Text \"START\" to 678 678 🇦🇺 Q Life - 1800 184 527 _______________________________________ Intro Music: Happy Day by Top Flow Outro Music: Please Calm My Mind by Lesfm","meta_description":"This month, I'm joined by psychic medium, witch, and all-round force of nature Anthony Lightz — and what a conversation this is!
