It looks healthy other than that leggy stem which can’t really be changed. The fallen leaf should grow into another succulent if you leave it for a long while. The big succulent seems to have a flower stem, is it blooming?!? Maybe your plant should be neglected more often 😂 !!

if the big stem bothers you, its very easy to fix! you can chop the stem anywhere youd like (I'd leave at least 1-2 inches below the first leaves). then let the cut heal over for a day or two, afterwards you can stick it back in dirt and it will grow new roots no problem! the old stem will also start to make new growth points eventually as well!

the lengthening is called etiolation, it happens when the plant doesnt have enough direct light. Won't kill the plant or anything, it will just keep getting longer to search for the sun!

It’s leggy. Move it to somewhere with more light and if you want to, chop off the top.
