#341: Mike Garber-Glenwood (IL) High School | Relentlessly Positive Coaching

From Glenwood alum to head coach, Mike Garber shares how a mentor’s relentless positivity shaped his coaching, why he treats the classroom like five daily “shows,” and how he helps athletes do what they never thought possible.


🧠 Mindset shift: from “have to” → “get to”

🦸 Mentors & modeling: Coach Mike Johnson’s lasting impact

🏫 Teaching first: tech in the classroom, FCA, and lifelong learning

🔁 The four stages of coaching: eager → intoxicated → sober → serene

🧩 Building staff & culture: assistants, clarity, and service

🏃 Program roots: returning home to Glenwood and staying for the long haul

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family balance: gratitude for a spouse who makes it possible

🔮 What’s next at Glenwood: belief, confidence, and unlocking ceilings


“I was called to be here. This is my calling.” — Mike Garber
