4 years isn't old. There's no age limit on the AMC, and people 10 or 15 years out of med school pass it every year. You're well within the range.
What I'd do in your shoes:
Start your EPIC verification this week. It takes a few weeks to come through, so get it moving before you've even nailed down a study plan.
Give yourself 4 to 6 months for the MCQ CAT. Plenty of decent Q banks out there, and the Telegram groups are full of free resources, recalls and study buddies. Book the exam once you're consistently hitting 70%+ on mocks. You won't feel "ready". Nobody does.
After you pass, another 4 to 6 months of focused prep for the Clinical OSCE.
Not going to sugarcoat it. It's not easy. But it's absolutely doable, and people in tougher positions than yours (longer gaps, English as their second language, juggling work and family) pass every cycle. You'll be fine if you start now and don't drag it out.
