Naga shared a very encouraging message to a fellow journalist

"Hi Laura - Welcome! I also often feel imposter syndrome – It's not so unusual - Do your best, ask for help and well done on the dream role! X," she kindly said in her message.

Naga is incredibly active on social media, especially Twitter, where she keeps followers updated with her day-to-day work life and as well as some rare private moments, particularly her fitness journey or love of golf.

Most recently, she used the platform to congratulate a fellow BBC colleague, Chris Mason, who earlier this month landed the role of Political Editor, taking over from Laura Kuenssberg.
