butts to the wind

to handle a difficult situation like its no big deal; facing adversity like a bad-ass

From a quote by the Corolla Wild Horse Fund on what the Outer Bank mustangs will do during Hurricane Dorian: "They'll likely ride out winds and rain as their ancestors did before them — in huddles, butts to the wind."

Only two days after her bike accident, she was riding again, butts to the wind.

Even though she had no writing experience, she went butts to the wind, and wrote an award-winning novel.
