I like to cut in smack in the middle between two leaves. So here where I marked in red is where I would cut. Unfortunately you’ll have to decide who gets two leaves and who gets one 😅 Based on the white on the stem, the two leaves section will have more variegation. But I would not suggest cutting on the other side because then the one leaf section would have no roots
