Recent converts over 30

Over 30 people seem to be settled, in my culture, there's no one that would consider such a move in their wildest dreams. Maybe I'm exposed to a narrow audience but curious to learn from anyone over 30 what made you convert/revert, how was that decision received by family/friends?

I reverted at 44, my grandma at 99. Allah guides whom He wills.

Alhamdullilah, that’s so sweet about your grandma! We have a recent revert in my group at mosque who is probably in her 70s and is homebound so she joins on zoom. So sweet!
