Can't find proper context for .findNavController()

So, I'm working on an Android app etc. I have this Main2Activity with a bottomNavView that helps me switch between ProfileFragment and HomeFragment. The thing is I want to use another navView inside my ProfileFragment, I simulated some kind of TabView so I can see two different fragments inside my ProfileFragment.

So, this is my Main2Activity

public class Main2Activity extends AppCompatActivity{
   
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main2);

        BottomNavigationView navView = findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
        AppBarConfiguration appBarConfiguration = new AppBarConfiguration.Builder(
                R.id.navigation_home, R.id.navigation_settings, R.id.navigation_new_post,
                R.id.navigation_notifications, R.id.navigation_profile)
                .build();
        NavController navController = Navigation.findNavController(this, R.id.nav_host_fragment);
        NavigationUI.setupActionBarWithNavController(this, navController, appBarConfiguration);
        NavigationUI.setupWithNavController(navView, navController);
    }

    public BottomNavigationView getBottomNavigationView(){
        return findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
    }

    public Activity getActivity(){
        return this;
    }
}

This is my ProfileFragment, and here's where the problem is. I can't find the context to use in findNavController() and setupWithNavController():

public class ProfileFragment extends Fragment {

    private ProfileViewModel notificationsViewModel;
    private boolean isLoading = false;

    public ProfileFragment() {
    }

    public View onCreateView(@NonNull LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        notificationsViewModel = ViewModelProviders.of(this).get(ProfileViewModel.class);
        View root = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_profile, container, false);



        BottomNavigationView navView = root.findViewById(R.id.profile_nav_view);
        AppBarConfiguration appBarConfiguration = new AppBarConfiguration.Builder(
                R.id.nav_my_posts, R.id.nav_applied_to)
                .build();
        NavController navController = Navigation.findNavController(getActivity(), R.id.profile_nav_host_fragment);
        NavigationUI.setupActionBarWithNavController(new Main2Activity(), navController, appBarConfiguration);
        NavigationUI.setupWithNavController(navView, navController);

        return root;
    }

}

The error I keep getting: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: ID does not reference a View inside this Activity

Anyone?
