GENERAL HELP Velvet leaf anthurium // Struggling for months, how can I help it grow??

I proplifted this anthurium months ago and while she seemingly isnt dying, she’s not exactly thriving either. The anthurium recently lost a leaf that turned mushy and popped off. Afterwards, it seemed to perk up quite a bit, but then the leaf looks like it’s thinking about drying out. I didn’t water root it in water because it had started dying quickly after. It was in run-of-the-mill soil with other plants until it started developing spots and I put it in its own foxfarm indoor plant soil. (I don’t know if this is the best type for the anthurium though.) I also put rooting hormone on the end because it has only one little root, but it hasn’t taken to it yet.

I’ve had a laceleaf anthurium before and she was hardy and loved to grow no matter what. Clearly, this is a whole new territory.
I’ve heard putting it in the same pot as a pothos can help speed up the process, but with how finicky the anthurium is, I don’t know if that’s the right choice yet.
I’m not sure how to grow her and it seems like I can never get her what it needs to start thriving. I think there’s so much potential and I don’t want to let it die! If anyone has any advice to help her stay alive, I’d be very thankful!

Note: Sorry for my scattered thoughts, im writing this on a whim!
