Gold Bell Croton Plant

Does anyone know how to make a Golden Bell Croton plant happy indoors? I can give it direct sunlight in the AM and shaded light in the afternoon. I know I should make sure not to over water.

NOT sure I have right soil as it was a gift many years ago. Anyone know what soil this plant would like? Lighter with perlite or sand? What proportion? Or potting soil? Would that be OK? Yes, there is a drainage hole at the bottom of the pot.

It’s so straggly now I feel awful. Want to help and I’ve been told it has to be pruned. BUT first I think it needs lighter soil and a new pot.

ANY HELP appreciated.
