even out
Reach equilibrium gradually
To even out is to become or make more uniform, balanced, or level.
Irregular surfaces even out when smoothed; fluctuating prices even out over time.
The workload should even out once we hire more staff.
The phrase suggests gradual correction rather than sudden change—things naturally settling toward equilibrium.
