Does anyone know why these little brown strands are coming out of the stem of my succulent and what I could do to help it?

Aerial roots! They use them to anchor/stabilize themselves so they can cover more ground

you can also trim the plant and propogate if you want a fuller looking plant!

Or lay the strands curled up in your soil to produce a fuller plant.
