Figurative speech is words which do not have a literal meaning but represent something else. The passage mentions that Bindi is a warrior. This doesn't mean that she is an actual warrior. It means she is strong and courageous as a warrior should be. She is also an individual with a growing talent who has an ability to perform very well. So while she is also a great performer, the figurative language is referring to her strong personality.
