Please help!  
I have a Norfolk pilea plant that is currently drooping, with curled leaves that feel almost like flimsy? I thought the issue might be that overwatering as the soil was quite soaked, so I switched the soil and now have it under a grow light.

Is this the right course of action? Or what else can I do?

It’s the right thing. You can wait a day to water after changing the soil. Make sure the pot its in has drainage hole to avoid it happening again.

Thank you! It does have drainage but maybe I'll have to add more

Add more or have a chunky soil mix. You got it 💚
