Why are my string of pearls and dolphins squishy? My pearls and dolphins sometimes just dry out even after watering or they are too squishy. For the philos, why out of all my philos the pink princess is the one with the most droopy. Idk how save it

Thank you for your questions, Zayma.  We need closeup photos to diagnose this problem, as well as whether they are in draining containers, how often you water and fertilize, and how much light they get.  String of pearls and String of dolphins are both succulents that need less water.  https://arapahoe.extension.colostate.edu/2023/01/05/beyond-the-obvious/  and https://hort.extension.wisc.edu/articles/string-of-pearls-senecio-rowleyanus/
Here is care information about your philodendron:  https://planterina.com/blogs/indoor-plant-care/pink-princess-philodendron
Perhaps these articles will help you understand what you need to change in their care.  If not, please write back with more information.  Thanks!
