It is badly sunburned, but don't fret, leaves are replaceable and this plant could look great in a few months. It is almost done flowering, and that takes a lot of energy out of the plant. Any new inflorescences should be removed while small to help conserve energy. Removing older flower stalks at this point won't help, so leave them alone.

Find a spot with bright shade, little direct sunlight until it recovers. Be very careful about watering too much in such a large pot. Practice benign neglect. It will do better if you can ignore it.

I'm with brad on this one, seems like the classic sunburnt. Plants are living things too, over exposure of high heat in prolong light can sorch leaves and effects are sadly permanent.

Try to extend its sunlight exposure slowly by an hour more each week, and you have a good plant all set up there.

Make sure you sterilize your tools well when you cut the declining inflorence (flower stalks), remember if your plant exposed wounds gets infected by pathogens or fungus spores - those unfortunate diseases kill plants very quickly with no cure to it.

Lastly, I hope the "special soil" you bought aren't those commercial peat "cactus and succulent soil" from big box stores. Those are regular non-well draining soil marketed as fake cactus soil. You will need porous substrate such as a lot of perlite or pumice in your soil for healthy succulents. If you can master not overwatering your succulents, you have one fine plant looking good in weeks.

good growing - bernard

I got perlite so hopefully that is helping! Thank you both so much for your input!
