Yellowing leaves

Help! I just recently bought this beauty at the end of August and some leaves started browning/turning yellow just recently. I water once a week and it has drainage. Initially, it was a few feet from the window and is now directly placed in front of it for hours of indirect sunlight. I have checked for pests as well and I don't see anything. Am I not watering it enough?
1ft to light, indirect
Last watered 1 week ago

It looks like normal leaf shedding to me, especially if the rest of the plant looks good. Just pop those off and let it grow 😊πŸͺ΄
Hi Sovanny, your plant profile says it’s in a pot with no drainage- if that’s true then you should repot to a planter with drainage asap. They like moist soil, but no drainage could lead to root rot. Also, the very bottom leaves of many plants often die to allow for new growth, pluck them out as they won’t recover. I live in Texas too and I had to take mine out of the window because the afternoon heat here, coming thru the glass was burning my leaves. I hope this helps 😊
@SillyPlantGirl - thank you! It has drainage, I just forgot to update the information on my profile. I will do that now! The heat here is brutal, so I'll move her back to where I had her in the first place.
@debbiedo - thank you Debbie! I thought it was normal considering the surrounding leaves are healthy, but it doesn't hurt to get a second, fourth, or eighth opinion lol
I think swiss cheese are placement drama queens lol. Not that theyre picky about the place. But i thunk they really hate being moved. Everytime i move one of mine it drops several leaves
