Unless there’s a solid familiarity with the individuals in the audience, it’s best to play safe and avoid any jokes that can potentially become offensive or divisive, such as politics and religion. Keep it real and personable, starting with “I have a few tips on how to raise kids…” or “We all have that friend who…” to pique interest with everyone. This comprehensive guide will help you assess your priorities and your instincts, as well as your likes and dislikes, with practical steps for navigating and embracing your authentic design style.” Tiny House Design & Construction Guide by Dan S.
