Hi Kelsey. Is there a chance that your sage plant met with a frost? The purple/brown colors are generally what happens to plants with frost. I lost an entire garden to frost a few years back. Had to replant all new plants. Try gently pinching off any dead leaves. Good luck Kelsey. Hoping all is well with you.

Hi! I would re-pot it in some fresh soil, cut it back, water it and give a chance to bounce back. Plants can be amazingly resilient. Have you changed it's location, lighting, etc., recently? Good luck and stay safe!
Hello there,
I would take it out of it's pot, check the soil for any bugs etc. split the plant and pot pieces up in new compost/soil, water and wait. You could find you have more than one healthy plant in the end! Best wishes......
It might be over watered. Don't water it until the top inch of soil is dry and then water until the water runs out the bottom of the pot. Indoors, once a week is probably enough.
fungal issues transplant roots into clean dry soil and cut off damaged tops to ground level throw out all contaminated foliage( in bag in garbage so you do not contaminate pants soil ) then let it dry out extremely well between watering & needs good drainage as well. only water early in day and do not water on the leaves/foliage soil only. it should regrow just fine full bright sun
I'd cut off the dead bits to help it focus it's growth on the healthy parts
I agree with Cynthia. It may just be depleted due to old soil. I don't think it has been over watered as I was always told over-watering usually results in yellowing limp leaves. Probably best to repot in fresh new potting soil and take care and give it special attention for a month and perhaps it'll renew itself.
Looks like over watering. (I am a horticulturist with 40 years experience.) Good advice above but I would also do the following:
If it's not overwatering, it could be spider mites or other insect/pest damage. I can't tell from the photo. But if I had to make an educated guess, I would assume overwatering - soggy soil resulting in "wet feet" and rotting the roots.
Lots of luck!
I am sorry that you have problem with that ..but try this pin ...it worked for me ... good luck https://www.pinterest.com/pin/35325178297156577/
It looks like it needs water but it could be pot bound. Try transplanting it into a larger pot with new soil.
