Authenticator/Teams/365 Authentication Loop

I am the sole administrator for my small Microsoft Teams/365/One Drive group - 25 people. I recently purchased a new iPhone and MacBook. I'm now stuck in a loop where Teams wants two factor identification and when I go into Authenticator it too wants to be authenticated.
I've searched for an answer for over a week and this is now impacting my business. I can't find a person to talk to/override this issue. It needs to be resolved quickly or I'm going to need to find an alternative.
