I've had this plant for about 2 years and it was always doing great. I moved about 6 months ago and it got neglected in the process. It dried out pretty good, and most of it died off. I think I overcorrected and by far overwatered it trying to save it. I repotted it about 2 weeks ago, into a much smaller pot since most of it died off. Some of the stems were completely rotted (smelled horrible) so I pulled them off and cut off as much as I could.

What are my next steps for keeping it alive?
