It looks like there’s either root rot or a nutrient deficiency. Hoyas are typically treated like succulents and your pot -while it looks like it’s not a self-watering unit - may have a slight bump in the center from when it was poured. You can only notice from inside so I would start there. Often, your soil becomes depleted and needs to be changed to get fresh nutrients. I do this to my plants every Spring and Autumn. When was the last time it was fed and watered? I would also use some liquid copper in the foliage and at the next watering. Do not use it on days you fertilize. Skip that day then add a bit of copper to the water at each watering for the next two months to help eradicate any unfamiliar issues. Make sure it’s also getting adequate light and only distilled/rain water.
It looks like it could use a good drink and some more light😁
Have you checked her roots? That’s where I would start!
Signs that your hoya isn’t getting enough water include shriveled and yellowing or browning leaves. If the leaves are falling off, on the other hand, or the stems and petioles appear mushy, you’re likely overwatering. Let the soil dry out more between waterings.
Ok so I repotted her and there was a lot of dirt tight around the roots. So I loosened them and put her in a terracotta pot
