Is the leanness something she wants to achieve for a special occasion (trip, wedding, etc.) or does she want to maintain it?
If it's just short term...lower carbs, add in 1-2 days of cardio and/or make her 4 days cardio all 45 minutes, not just 30. When that no longer works, bump it up again as needed.
300 cal from carbs is ~75g. If that is a reduction in carbs relative to how much she is getting in now, it should cause her to pull more fat out as fuel.
When I want to get leaner, I gradually reduce carbs or cycle them with more frequent low days, and increase cardio until I get the desired effect. Getting VERY lean is not comfortable and I personally wouldn't want to maintain it for longer than I have to (i.e., competition or photo shoot).
If she wants to maintain a greater degree of leanness longterm, I would recommend she focus on building muscle...unless she wants to have to continue to do a lot of cardio and eat with greater restrictions.
