My echeveria has been doing really well, but recently some leaves have shriveled and fallen off. Is this normal? Or is there something I should be treating?

it should be fine, probably up your watering a little bit, we typically under water succulents because we treat them like cactuses which can be beneficial, but can also lead to shriveled leaves. i have a succulent that i’m having trouble with due to under watering as well!!
