riding out
Surviving the storm
Riding out means enduring something difficult until it passes.
The image is of staying mounted through turbulent conditions rather than dismounting or being thrown: We're just riding out the storm, The company rode out the recession by cutting costs.
The phrase implies patience and resilience—weathering trouble rather than fleeing or fighting it.
