Hard to tell since it’s blurry zooming in, but white stuff and new leaves only makes me think mealy bugs

Mealybug. Isolate the plant. Disinfectant hands/tools after handling the plant. Use a cotton swab with isopropyl alcohol to dab each bug. Check all the areas on the plant and around the pot. Check nearby plants. Look for sticky trails on the plant to help locate where they might hide. Recheck every week until you don’t see them again. They are persistent. They quickly spread. 🍀🍀🍀
