In Episode 4 of Microdoses of Joy, Dr. Powell reflects on a powerful experience that reignited her spirit during a recent trip to New York City. She attended a concert by Carimi, a Haitian band beloved by her late brother Israel. The band, too, was grieving the loss of their bandmate, Michael Benjamin "Mikaben," who tragically collapsed on stage. Despite the heavy emotions, the night became an unexpected triumph. As Carimi honored Mikaben's memory, their music and the collective resilience among the band members brought a sense of renewal to Dr. Powell, offering comfort in the midst of her own grief. This episode explores the profound truth that celebration and grief can coexist—two powerful emotions that, together, create space for healing and renewal.
