In this episode of the Faithly Stories podcast, hosts Alicia Lee and Adam Durso speak with Daria Nardozza, co-founder of City Leaders Collective, about how faith, healing, and vision can transform both lives and cities.
Raised in a home marked by addiction and mental health struggles, Daria shares how Bible camp and the steady love of her grandmother shaped her journey into ministry and leadership. Her calling now fuels a movement of over 100 city networks across North America, equipping local leaders through collaboration, coaching, and gospel-centered community work. With insight from her academic and ministry experience, Daria reflects on spiritual formation, interdenominational unity, and balancing leadership with family life—offering a hopeful picture of what’s possible when faith takes root in the heart of a city
