Medium light, no direct light, slightly moist soil but not wet and a spritz every few days. Make sure it has good drainage and it should bounce back. These plants are sold everywhere but they are NOT the easiest plant to keep alive.

Mine loves a lot of moisture so I keep my hanging in a bathroom window… the eh are known to be temperamental and dramatic and can be under watered easily

Mine looks the same and has had nothing dropped on it! I agree, it is not easy! I have new leaves growing while some dying all at the same time. It is very puzzling 🧐
