I think JavaScript is a sound choice even though I would go for TypeScript. I'm 42 and have coded in C#, Java, C, Python, PHP and AS3 (anyone remember that one?) But due the nature of my business (web based) I was able to focus solely on TypeScript for front and backend. I find it such an ergonomic and productive language and there is no context switching between any of my code. I'm not particularly good at it either despite years under my belt. I keep things simple and don't go overboard with design patterns, OOP or generics. I have nothing to prove to anyone but my future self (when coming back to code after months or years have passed). One can be a mediocre developer (I'm sure you are not) and still be very productive and successful, standing on the shoulders of giants.
