Answer
Shalom and blessings
Kiddush is not something strange for any Jew. Nowadays everything is familiar to everyone and everything is broadcast, and every Jew knows that Kiddush is part of the mitzvot of Shabbat.
The only thing they might wonder about is: “What happened to you that you decided to make Kiddush?”
In this you need to be at peace with yourself, and say to yourself “This is what I have decided, this is the truth, and I have the right to do what is true as I see it.”
Your truth is transmitted outward without words and causes those around you to accept it simply.
