My mom recently retired and is enjoying life to the fullest. I’m so happy for her, but at the same time, worried that she is spending above her means. She had shared with me the amount of her retirement savings and I don’t believe what she has saved can sustain her current spending. Is there anything I can do to help her manage this new life change? Enjoying retirement is something we all deserve after working a long career, but I’m just worried it will run out. Has that happened to anyone here?

I would let her live her life. She knows her financial situation and she's managed to keep herself afloat her entire life. Let her enjoy herself and just be happy for her.
