My polka dot plant was doing really well then all of a sudden the tips of the leaves started turning brown. The newer leaves seem to be ok and are still growing. What's wrong and what should I do?

I’m dealing with this same issue currently! Is there anything you have done differently lately? The only thing I can think of that I have done differently recently is not misting as often as I had before the brown tips so this is what I am trying, I’m planning to just give a little spritz every other day for now. I only noticed yesterday so I can’t say whether it will help or not yet with certainty!!

You have to prune the new leaves. There are so many videos about it. It helps to have a humidifier or diffuser as well.
