Dr. Bill Schindler is helping us remember what real nourishment looks like—bringing ancestral food skills, traditional preparation methods, and hands-on kitchen practices back into modern life. As an archaeologist, chef, and father, Bill doesn’t just talk about food—he lives it. He’s spent years guiding families out of the overwhelm of convenience culture and back to the kind of eating that actually sustains us.
This is Part 2 of our conversation, so if you haven’t listened to Part 1 yet, the link is below—I’d start there for the full context.

Dr. Bill Schindler wasn’t always teaching ancestral skills—he started by trying to feed his own family better. The further he looked into the modern food system, the more broken it appeared. That curiosity became a calling. From living with Indigenous communities to building a food lab at home, he immersed himself in ancestral methods not out of nostalgia, but out of necessity. What he found wasn’t just better nutrition—it was a path to autonomy, connection, and true nourishment. Today, he’s showing others how to take that path too, one real skill at a time.
