Is it a carnosa Hoya? I have one that’s super similar and that’s what i ended up calling it. But it could also be a wax plant memoria? I feel like I can never tell the difference between certain plants

Yep Hoya carnosa :)

Thank you both!! Haha I agree, some hoya varieties are tough to tell apart just via leaf :)

It looks closer to a Carnosa to me, as well. My Hoya memoria has thinner and narrower leaves
