Its down to how the payment was SENT to your account.
1. If they sent using money > goods / services option then paypal would see you as a seller and apply the new seller hold. They would also charge you a fee.
2. If they had sent using the send money > family / friends option then you would have had the payment instantly with no fee.

So if she sent it as goods and services although there isn’t any goods or services being sold what would be the best way to go about fixing this so the funds are released

Try marking the item as shipped in the PayPal transaction details, and that should open up the capability for the sender to go into the transaction details on their side, and acknowledge receipt of the item. That ''may'' allow the payment to be completed more quickly.
