Looking for advice. I'm thinking about giving this girl a chop. Her stem is a bit wonky on the bottom. The lower leaves are droopy and losing color recently. She has multiple pups coming up too. She sits in a Southwest facing window and gets a good amount of afternoon sun. Thoughts? Suggestions? Best practices for chopping/trimming?

I’m new to this plant. When it came home from the store it had really weird discoloration in the leaves and they were a pale green. I cut all the leaves off and chopped it down and she’s coming in really full and vibrant green now. Same with the pup I planted in a different pot.
