I don’t believe those pots have drainage so if it started dropping leaves right after you repotted it could also be that the roots are being deprived of oxygen due to the lack of drainage.

She looks thirsty! She could also be stressed from the move, look really close at the plant and soil to make sure there aren’t any pests. You should also clean off the dead leaves if you want to 👍🏻

Inconsistent watering.

We don’t have enough info really to diagnose.

Your soil looks dryer than a desert. Calatheas specifically need always moist (not wet) soil. If you can pick some soil up and squeeze out water that’s wet, if it just feels wet but can be squeezed out that’s moist.

On top of that in my experience the leaves curling over themselves without being dried is too much sun, leaves try to curl over themselves to block light when they get too much.

So likely both sun and water.

Repotting also adds shock, so you could have 3 things going against you
