Hi succulent circle!!! I’ve had this echavaria for a few weeks and since I got her I have repotted her once and watered her about two or three times with a week or so in between each watering. I noticed one leaf looking a bit discolored and shriveled a few days after watering and adding a bit of extra soil to the top. Any ideas on what could be the issues or is it just something that happens?? Thank you!!
I would say possibly you have over watered. I only water my succulents once every two weeks in the summer and once every month in the winter

1 j'aimeDoes your pot have drainage? With that much watering, you could have some not so happy roots. Succulents like to dry out before watering. Like the above comment, try to water not as often and maybe try the skewer method, like testing if I cake is done- stick a skewer in the soil and leave it for a few mins. If it comes out with wet crumbly soil, leave for a few days. You want it to come out completely dry, then give a good soak
2 J'aime The pot does have drainage!! But I definitely think I have overwatered, I will totally try that trick that is so cool! Thank you!!!

From the looks of it, the soil looks a little dense. Think you might need a better well draining succulent soil.
