Trouble syncing events to phone and desktop

When I create events using the Calendar app on my phone, they do not show up on my desktop version. However, events created on my desktop calendar app properly sync to the phone. This has been going on for a while, and is consistent. I've verified I'm using a calendar on both devices. Any thoughts?

Try going to iCloud.com using a computer browser to see if the items are there and whether they are from the device or the computer. That should show whether the device or the computer isn't syncing. If the computer, try going to System Preferences/iCloud (Apple ID if you are using Catalina) and stop syncing. Wait a couple of minutes, then recheck syncing. If the device, go to Settings/Your Name/iCloud and do the above. As a last resort, you can also try signing out of iCloud and then sign in again.
