Meaning
Reassuring someone that everything will turn out well.
Cultural Background
Germans value pragmatism. This phrase is a way to acknowledge a problem while refusing to dwell on it. Austrians often use a slightly softer tone, sometimes adding 'schau ma mal' (let's see). Swiss German speakers might use 'Es chunt guet' as a direct equivalent. In the North, people are often more laconic; they might just say 'Wird schon'.
The Power of 'Schon'
Don't translate 'schon' as 'already'. In this context, it's a mood-setter.
