Sunshine,
Luckily for you, your age is less of a negative at European schools like INSEAD, where the average age is 29 and the middle 80% is 25-32. They do admit people your age. As you noted, the disadvantage of your background is the business experience issue. Keep in mind, though, that your background is also a strength for you in that it helps you stand out from the pack. To diminish this weakness, I recommend emphasizing any and all stories from every aspect of your life that highlight your leadership abilities. Also, look for any aspects of your background that show you have a knowledge of business-related issues such as budgets, costs, efficiency, team-building, etc. Finally, present very focused, mature goals and show that you are savvy about the industry you're targeting. If you do all these things, you may be able to get them to overlook your comparative lack of direct business experience.
Hope this helps,
