It looks sunburnt. Burnt spots won’t recover. Was it exposed to direct sunlight? If not, it’s likely overwatered. I would let the soil dry out before watering again. Do not strictly follow a watering schedule before checking the actually needs water. Use a meat skewer or similar tool to check for soil moisture. Let the wooden tool sit in the soil for 30 minutes to show the water level in the soil. 🍀🪴

Thanks so much for responding. She sits in my office window, so sun does directly hit her at times. I didn’t think of that. My baby is burninggg😭. I will do as you suggest. Hope to have an update of ❤️‍🩹 recovering.

Pothos Ivy can’t take direct sunlight if it’s the intense midday sun. Early morning and late afternoon milder sunlight is ok. 😁
