go it alone
Refuse all help
To go it alone is to proceed without help or partnership, handling something independently when collaboration was possible or expected: After the merger fell through, the company decided to go it alone.
The phrase often suggests determination or self-reliance in the face of difficulty: She went it alone after her business partner quit.
