Are the different plants all potted in one pot together? It’s hard to tell if they are from this picture, but if so that could be the problem!

The problem is those plants shouldn’t be potted together. I can’t tell what the plant of the left is but the Alocasia and Tradescantia have different watering and soil requirements. Alocasias are susceptible to overwatering and like to dry out between waterings while Tradescantias like a consistently moist soil. I would remove the Alocasia and repot with an aroid soil mix.
