She posted a series of photos and videos in a kitchen, wearing chef attire. Some photos show her near a stove, while one other shows her in a walk-in cooler. Two videos show her in motion, from mincing onions to her flamb\u00e9. Also, two photos show accomplished meat dishes: one resembles a stew, while the opposite shows a stuffed protein. In her caption, Draya Michele revealed her journey within the kitchen took an expert turn just a few months ago.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cFor the past few months, I\u2019ve been in culinary school. Becoming a chef was never something on my mood board (until these days) but that\u2019s the fantastic thing about life. I\u2019ve enjoyed cooking for my family members for years, and now I\u2019m just perfecting it,\u201d Draya wrote.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Within the caption, she also encouraged her followers to take recent lanes when desired. She wrote, <strong>\u201cYou\u2019re allowed to evolve. You\u2019re allowed to pivot. You\u2019re allowed to find recent passions you never saw coming. It\u2019s never too late to alter your path or start something recent.
