This week on What’s The Tea with Sarah E, I sit down with the unapologetic force that is Erin Dunham - restaurateur, feminist, mother, and fierce leader behind The Other Bird, the powerhouse hospitality group redefining dining across Ontario.
With over 25 years in the restaurant industry - Erin has built an empire that spans Rapscallion, The Mule, Henry's and more. But Erin’s story isn’t just about food - it’s about fire.
In this bold, unfiltered conversation, Erin spills the tea on:
Erin opens up about her love-hate relationship with Hamilton, her vision for real community change, and her belief that women should stop apologizing for existing. As former co-chair of a capital campaign bringing affordable housing to women and families, founder of the Masquerade Gala, and long-time supporter of hospice for children and countless other causes, Erin lives her values daily - turning passion into purpose and business into a vehicle for good.
This episode is for every woman who’s ever been told to “soften her edges” - and chose to sharpen them instead. Episode 6 - No Apologies, No Filters: Erin Dunham on Power, Philanthropy, and Owning the Room is streaming now on What’s The Tea with Sarah E.
