Lindy and her ex-husband Michael Klim started Milk & Co in 2010, and 10 years later in 2020 secretly launched her own beauty company Fig Femme.
Fig Femme is a female intimate wellness brand that initially launched with one product: a vulva mask.
‘It’s a struggle every day. I get really sh***y with myself and find it hard to express myself, especially in business,’ Lindy said of her struggle with dyslexia.
She added: ‘Emails are my most hated thing in life!’
‘I try and focus on what I am good at and find people to help me with the things I can’t do.’

In an interview with 9Honey in 2018, Lindy spoke about her dyslexia as a child.
‘I grew up in Tasmania and I was pretty much the only Asian person in my school, so I got teased dramatically and I had massive learning difficulties – I’m dyslexic and I found that really really hard.’
Meanwhile in Sunday’s Q&A Lindy said that the Balinese international school attended by her children was far more diverse in cultures and lifestyles.
She also revealed that the school fees are upwards of $60,000 per year.
