GET RID OF YOUR
C.R.A.P.™
and Experience Lasting Transformation
.Shundra Bates is The Christian Red-to-Gold Speaker™ who guides Christian believers to move from Red to Gold by surrendering Control, Rejection, Attention-Seeking, and Pride (C.R.A.P.) and embracing their God-given identity, freedom, and purpose in Christ.
I’m Shundra Bates, The Christian Red-to-Gold Speaker™ and Founder of Get Rid Of Your C.R.A.P.™ Empowerment Co.
Before I ever realized my voice had a purpose, God was already writing my story.
At six months old, I faced a life-threatening respiratory condition that led doctors to schedule a tracheostomy. But on the day of the surgery, while I was on the operating table, something unexpected happened—I began breathing on my own, and the procedure was canceled.
Looking back, I believe God was preserving more than my breath; He was preserving my voice for a purpose.
Years later, through seasons of change, loss, uncertainty, and rebuilding, God revealed areas of my life where I was holding onto Control, Rejection, Attention-Seeking, and Pride (C.R.A.P.). Through surrender, healing, and a deeper understanding of my identity in Christ, I discovered the freedom that comes from allowing God to refine me.
That journey became the foundation of my mission.
Today, I help believers break free from Control, Rejection, Attention-Seeking, and Pride (C.R.A.P.) so they can embrace their God-given identity, experience true freedom in Christ, and walk confidently in their God-given purpose.
Through my signature Red-to-Gold™ message, I guide believers like you on a powerful journey of surrender, reflection, and transformation—moving from what keeps them stuck into the freedom and purpose God has for them.
Whether speaking at churches, conferences, retreats, women's events, leadership gatherings, or faith-based organizations, my mission is to encourage believers to surrender what has been holding them back, embrace who God created them to be, and leave equipped to walk boldly in the freedom, purpose, and calling He has placed on their lives.
Because what God restores, He refines.

A Message of Hope.
A Mission of Transformation.
What Is C.R.A.P.™?
Four common barriers that keep us from living in God's purpose.
CONTROL
Trying to manage everything
instead of trusting God.
REJECTION
Allowing past wounds and disappointments
to define your identity.
ATTENTION-SEEKING
Finding your worth in the approval
of others instead of in Christ.
PRIDE
Relying on self instead of surrendering
to God's direction.
THE RED TO GOLD™ METHOD
Surrender. Refine. Transform.
RED represents the blood of Jesus shed at the cross
surrender.
Before transformation can happen, we must identify and release what is keeping us stuck.
GOLD represents refinements.
When we surrender to God, He refines us into who He created us to become.
Through the Red to Gold™ Method, audiences learn to:
- Identify their C.R.A.P.™
- Release what has been holding them back
- Embrace surrender
- Experience refinement
- Walk boldly in purpose
