She’s probably just a little bit stressed from the journey. Check to see if she needs water (probably) and place her in a spot with indirect light. She might be curled up from the dark or from lack of humidity in the box. You can mist her. Planta (I think is where I read) curl up naturally at night to conserve moisture in their leaves.

I have the same one! They hate being dry and keep them towards the center of your room or they burn so easy. Also they prefer distilled water or their roots get mineral bound and make their leaves ugly (idk I am not risking it)? And I feel like I have to spay and clean the leaves constantly with leaf shine. Needs a large pot with a lot of drainage. Apparently they’re really prone to pest infestations too 🙄. They’re kind of a pain but worth it!
