There’s no previous years for you so there’s nothing to compare against.
Being audited isn’t as onerous as it may sound.
You can worry less about being audited the more accurate your records are.
If audited, you just get letters in the mail asking for you to submit the proof that you should already have maintained to substantiate your claims. That’s the vast majority of audits.
There’s no person with a badge who comes knocking on your door and shining flashlights in your eyes. There’s no handcuffs. There’s no chains. There’s no whips.
Just plain old boring paperwork.

I was Audited by my State last year and they gave me $15 more back!
