My sting of pearls is dying and I’m unsure if I overwater...

This plant was thriving until I repotted with succulent soil and fertilized as well in same day. I’m unsure what to do now!
4” pot with drainage

Pot with no drainage?
Hey there! This poor guy definitely needs some help. From the look of the photo it seems like there might be some mold growing on the left side which my guess means it was overwatered. Aside from that he may need more light as well. When did you repot and fertilize? If the soil is really wet after a long time you may want to repot what is still living in dry soil so the roots don’t rot. According to his info it says the pot has no drainage. If that is true I’d definitely consider getting something with drainage and possibly porous like terracotta so it can dry completely between watering. String of pearls are succulents so they definitely don’t like to sit in water so if he doesn’t have drainage you have to be extra careful about overwatering.
I apologize, Ive only just updated the correct info on my baby. He is in a 4 in terracotta pot with drainage. I will take your advice and attempt to repot this evening. Ty very much!
It root rotted these succulents plants doesn’t like their soil to me soggy at all and don’t mist them that creates the mold you see.. take her out that pot now and let her dry out if you want to save her
