Gaylor noted that Markle and Prince Harry took several steps to deal with and extricate themselves from what clearly was a toxic situation for them within the royal family, especially when it became clear how deeply it was affecting Markle's health.
"What they both addressed was being able to set boundaries with people or things in our lives that are no longer serving us," Gaylor pointed out. Paying attention to how you feel when you spend time with someone and how that relationship affects your mental health can help you see when the bad outweighs the good, which is a sign to set boundaries. And setting those boundaries isn't a bad thing, Gaylor stressed: "Sometimes when we set a boundary, it allows us to preserve the relationship."
And if communication and boundaries don't work, the next step is to do what Markle and Prince Harry did: remove yourself from the toxic situation.
