Probably watering issues while the new leaves come in. Likely overwatering / too damp roots.

I’m still convinced this one is hoya heuschkeliana varigata and not a princess due to the size 😅. This one likes high humidity like 40-60%+ and dry out to like 90% between watering.

Hi Nayeli, I agree with @Alinaa that it's likely over watering.

Hoya has succulent-type leaves and 99% of the time when in doubt, don't water. I've never had a Hoya decline due to lack of water, but I have had them decline due to too much.

Agree with both posts above. I let mine dry out before watering so I have it down to every 11 days for most of my Hoyas and 2 like every 14days. Mine are in a south window but it’s not direct sunlight.
