Hmmmm... long before I was interested in WIITWD, I was interested in older women. For me, it was more about maturity level than any esoteric power exchange thing. But still, it's the same problem. And the answer is, you look around until you find someone who doesn't care how old you are. What else is there really to do? When we married, my wife was 8 years my senior (34/42) and long before we had words to describe it or could nurture it along, there has always been an obvious authority transfer between us. In the end, unless they have huge guards up, compatible subs and doms recognize each other. As an interesting aside, I've actually seen one such D/s relationship -- 44 and 24 years of age for the sub and dom respectively. It didn't work out in that particular case for exactly the reasons you'd guess. Specifically, he was too inexperienced to be able to lead her and not in control of himself enough to control her. She recognized this fairly quickly and ended it. But whether or not that result is "typical" means nothing for how any individual younger dom and older sub might be able to handle themselves.
